Autolynx 100 {1970s}

[paul evans]

Had the printed circuit checked and a few dry joints attended to, machine turns on and buzzes wire feed works but no power to the welding wire, been told by the board repairer that 1 on the 2 relays is faulty where can these be found and has anyone had the same problem with this type of machine or can it be another problem.
What do these relays actually do ??

Why didnt they not replace the relays also,if he knew they were duff?

Before i try and find replacement relays firstly i was wanting to know what they operate was the question as you obviously have not read before wasting any more money on the machine.

Hang on,this "board repairer" i take is the person in the know,the clever one,expert?
So,my wild guess would be he'd know what relays to get or at least replacements to the same values/specs etc,NO?
Hi Mr Paul, i've had a look at your board and found 2 duff relays,now i dont think i can get the exact ones but i'll see if theres alternatives,if so i'll let you know how much etc,no?
Afterall,this board repairer will be doing the work,no?
Be a bit like me telling my customer,yes mate your cills are rotten,go find the right ones and i'll weld them back in for you,my guess i wouldn't be seeing him again,bad business IMO
Have a good day
