My welder isn't working. When you pull the trigger the gas solenoid clicks but no current flows. That is regardless of whether HF is set on or off or the distance from the tungsten to the work, I even tried scratching the ground clamp with it in a match-striking motion, nothing happened. I've multi-metered both cables and both have continuity and the solenoid clicking says the switch must work.
So where do I look now?
It's an old version of an IFL 200HF if that matters.
I've just spotted a newer 200PHF (Same as mine but with pulse) on eBay for little money right now, I may buy it if I can't fix mine.
