Default Re: MIG welder fault

This is probably no help but I used a Cebora 130 badged Snap-On and on those the one weakness is the contacts in the torch. (readily available Cebora parts on you know where)

I assume the 160 has a proper euro torch? (plugs in to the front of the unit) and if it does this, being something which takes a lot of abuse, may well still be an the problem. The easiest way to check a euro torch is to borrow one from a working welder if you know someone with a suitable mig. Euro torch assemblies should be interchangeable regardless of manufacturer.
