Tig pedal repair help needed!!!

admin

Hey guys a couple of the wires are pulled out of my 8 pin foot pedal connector on my thermal arc 185. Is there anyway to take these apart and repair them? ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Reply:Yes, here is the tool I use to work on pin connectors: AMP 91285-1.  You can purchase this tool from large electronic parts suppliers.  Sorry I do not have the name of one right off my head.  Best regards BobHere you go, try NEWARK or just Google the number above.  Best  BobLast edited by rhunt; 01-25-2015 at 06:01 AM.

Reply:Ok I've got it apart and there are only 5 wires going into the connector and 1 jumper wire in the connector are there supposed to be 8 pins or just 7?   Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Reply:If you still are having problems call SSC. They build the pedals for Thermal Arc. They sold me the connector you need with a few feet of cable.....was around $25. You can they splice the wires together.......easy as they are color coded. If you go this route it is besy (IMO) that you solder and shrink tube every connection.This would be a last resort as you have good suggestions above!
