Hello everyone new to this forum require help my sealey 130xt mk2. I was using it today after been stored away for 3years, and it was fine for about 2hours making spot welds, untill it started making a very loud noise from solenoid and theres no wire feed. i've slacken the rollers and the problem persists. ive taken the cover off. and below the motor seem to be a relay that has moving parts, that move quick when when operating welder. any ideas what is wrong? thanks

sorted it was the relay engaging and disengaging very rapidly. On removal did a bench test on it and the solenoid operated fine, so i cleaned all the contact points and hey presto its all working. May possibly need to change in future if problem persists, however i used it today for another 2hours and it was fine.
