About 15 years since I bought it but not done a lot of work.
When I insert the 16a 240v plug the cooling fan starts up and all lights come on the panel as photo no matter whether the switch on the back of unit is on or off. Mode dosn't show on panel, mode selector does nothing amp adjuster does nothing.
It always did this before when I put the 240v plug in for about 2 seconds then switched itself off, then when I turned the switch on on the back of the welder it was ready for welding with, seems like this pre start up is continuing for some reason.
Had to get the Pickhill out from under the bench today.
