Hobart handler 135 pc board
Posted: Sun Jul 27, 2014 12:05 pm
1st post goes like this, bought the 135 used at a good price. had to travel 100+ miles to acquire. Got it home and fired up on it twice, the wire feed started acting up. I ll shorten this up. any help given Is greatly appreciated. troubleshooting unit brings me to relay on the pc board new board costs 300+ from hobart, a repaired board with 1 yr warranty 183. viewing hobart forum finds this particular board fails many times beyond being an issue in my opinion.So, I ordered a replacement relay from degi-key 3.85. Hobart forum stops short of confirming this as a solution . The relays that were sent have 5 pins in the correct location with a 6th pin. I am new to these forums and find myself unable to post, inquire.Has anyone ever had this problem, and if so what site were you able to get the 5 pin relay rated for30 vdc. Thank You
