Hello all, got volunteered to troubleshoot a problem on a 215, hoping someone can help.Machine will not weld at any setting on the rotary switch, will strike an arc but very spattery,almost like there is no gas.good gas flow, checked by turning up the flow regulator all the way and checking by hand at the nozzle, changing the amount of gas has no effect on the weld, still spattery.checked the liner and the drive wheels, smooth operation of the wire at all speeds.removed the covers, blew out the machine, cleaned all the contacts on the rotary switch, they did not appear to have any corrosion or oxidation on them.checked positive and negative connections and internal board connections, all tight, no obvious signs of arcing anywhere.no change in problem after these checks.any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, JimI posted this on the mig and tig forum also, hope that is not against the rules, if so I will delete.K code K2326-1 11247s/n: U 1050419215
