What to do if my Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens is not switching and stays light during welding?

  If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens stays light and won't darken during welding, immediately stop welding. If it's an Auto-On lens, press the Reset button. For Manual-On lenses, ensure it's turned on. If the power is on, adjust the sensitivity based on recommendations. Also, clean the lens cover and sensors, ensuring they directly face the arc; angles beyond 45 degrees might prevent arc light detection.

  If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens is switching or flickering, darkening then lightening while welding, try increasing the sensitivity setting. Ensure the arc sensors have direct access to the arc light, and clean the lens cover of any dirt or spatter that may be blocking the sensors. Increasing the Lens Delay from 0.1 to 0.3 seconds might also help reduce the switching.

  If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens isn't turning on and won't darken when you press the Reset button, check the batteries. Ensure they're in good condition and installed correctly. Clean the battery surfaces and contacts if needed. Verify proper battery contact and gently adjust the contact points if necessary, especially if the helmet has been dropped. Also, confirm that the left and right battery trays are installed on the correct sides.

  If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens stays dark after welding or when no arc is present, fine-tune the sensitivity by slightly adjusting the control toward the "min" setting. In very bright conditions, reducing surrounding light may also be necessary.

What to do if sections of my Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens are not going dark?
- M
  Marcus JohnsonAug 28, 2025
  If sections of your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens aren't going dark, and distinct lines separate light and dark areas, stop welding immediately. This may be because the auto-lens is cracked, possibly from dropping the helmet or weld spatter. The lens may need replacement, but most cracked lenses aren't covered under warranty.
