    Why are the FAULT and 70 PSI indicators flashing on my ESAB Welding System?
    • S
      Sandra ButlerSep 14, 2025
      If the FAULT and 70 PSI indicators are flashing on your ESAB Welding System, here's what you should check: 1. Make sure the shield cup is hand-tightened until it is snug. 2. Ensure the torch ATC is securely fastened to the unit. 3. If there is a problem in the torch and leads PIP circuit, replace the torch and leads or return to an authorized service center for repair or replacement. 4. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it could be due to failed components in the unit, requiring a return to an authorized service center for repair or replacement.

    What to do if FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing on my ESAB Welding System?
    • J
      Jennifer JuarezSep 12, 2025
      If the FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing on your ESAB Welding System, it means that: * The start signal is active when the ON/OFF switch is turned to the ON position. The start can be active if the hand torch switch or hand pendant switch is held closed, or if the CNC START signal is active low. Release the START signal source. * There is a problem in the torch and leads switch circuit. Replace the torch and leads or return to an authorized service center for repair or replacement. * There are failed components in the unit. Return to authorized service center for repair or replacement.

    How to troubleshoot an ESAB Welding System when the ON/OFF switch is ON, but the A/C Indicator does not light?
    • R
      Roy GregorySep 12, 2025
      If the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position, but the A/C indicator light doesn't illuminate on your ESAB Welding System, here's what to check: 1. Ensure the primary power disconnect switch is in the ON position. 2. Have a qualified person check the primary fuses/breakers. Also, try connecting the unit to a known good primary power receptacle. 3. Replace the internal fuse. If it blows again, return the unit to an authorized service center. 4. If none of the above steps work, there may be faulty components in the unit. In that case, return it to an authorized service center for repair or replacement.

    What to do if GAS LED is OFF, and FAULT and MIN pressure indicators are flashing on my ESAB Cutmaster 120?
    • J
      Joseph TranAug 23, 2025
      If the GAS LED is off and the FAULT and MIN pressure indicators are flashing on your ESAB Cutter, the possible causes are: 1. The gas supply is not connected to the unit (connect gas supply). 2. The gas supply is not turned on (turn the gas supply on). 3. The gas supply pressure is too low (set air supply inlet pressure to unit to 120 psi). 4. The AIR PRESSURE CONTROL regulator is set too low. If none of these steps resolve the issue, the problem may be failed components in the unit.

      If the FAULT and 80 PSI indicators are flashing and the gas flow is cycling ON and OFF: - Tighten the shield cup by hand, but do not overtighten. - Turn OFF the power supply, remove the shield cup, and install any missing parts. - Turn OFF the power supply, bleed down the system pressure, remove the shield cup, tip, and start cartridge, and check the start cartridge lower end fitting for free movement. Replace the fitting if it does not move freely.
