speed Wire Feed Unit that you have

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

continuity between plug P5 pins 4

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and 6. Likewise if you have a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

standard speed Wire Feed Unit you

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

should not have continuity between

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P5 pins 4 and 6. If the continuity test

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

fails, refer to wiring diagram and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

correct the problem in the J13 to J5

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

jumper sensing system. Otherwise

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

replace control board.
