Automig 160 C broken

[isbutikken]

Hello,



Thank you for the membership!
I'm new to the welding world and have inherited this fine old welder, which unfortunately is now broken.



It's an Automig 160 C from the 1970s that can't feed wire and doesn't open the gas nozzle.
I think there's something wrong with the main circuit board. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this?
Migatronic won't provide it.



Thank you in advance
/ Mark

Hello Mark and welcome to the Forum !
This earlier thread discusses Migatronic 140 and 180 machines, your 160 may be similar:

I am Stefan and new to this forum. I hope someone can help me. I need a wiring diagram for an Automig 140 Mono. Alternatively, even a picture would help on the electronics of the wide plug with the connected cables can be seen. I am looking forward to any first thought answer. Best regards Stefan

and there are links in there to other threads, some with diagrams.
If your machine is not the same, then if you could post photos of the internal layout and both sides of the main circuit board we can start to reverse-engineer it and suggest possible troubleshooting steps.
