    Why is the high temperature light on my Miller Welding System?
    • B
      brianjonesAug 23, 2025
      If the high temperature light (LED) is on, it means the unit overheated, causing a thermal shutdown. Allow the unit to cool with the fan on. You may also need to reduce the duty cycle or amperage. Ensure that there is no blocked or poor airflow to the unit.
