ERROR CODE E6502 Arc failure.
The signal (current detection: WCR) that indicates the robot is executing the weld was
not returned from the weld controller/timer within 1 second, or less, after welding
started.
Main causes include:
1. Arc is not generated when welding starts.
2. Arc generation is interrupted for 1, or more, seconds during welding.
Check for insulating debris that prevents welding, clear debris as necessary.
Confirm that adequate supply of wire is available.
Confirm that wire is not stuck to the welding tip.
Check weld controller/timer and cables, repair/replace as necessary.

tion signal is received. The weld stuck detection signal does not clear after the es-
cape process is executed.
2. The wire is stuck to the base metal at weld completion.
Cut the wire and re-execute weld.
Change weld conditions if problem occurs frequently.
