I was having same issue.. thought it was maybe a broken wire inside.. took it all apart and wires looked good... come to find out after taking it further apart i found that the end that contacted the dial part to select current... the little tab was burnt almost all the off...i had some thick copper laying around and just filed factory copper arm to shiny and soldered the new tiny piece of copper to it so it makes better contact.... works like new again and getting full current to material....i bought this new almost 30 years ago.. been a great welder... thanks for the video!
I noticed both your switches work very freely.mine is older than yours and the switches take a lot of force to move but my contacts likely need cleaning to as I’m having slight trouble with stick start
Well that certainly is useful info.when I bought mine in 95’ it was the floor model and the last one they had and they sold it to me for $150 as is nothing came with it so it may be worth while to spend some time online searching out any info I can,thanks
Hello friend, what a good video, thank you very much for your contribution. I congratulate you. Note that I have a Lincoln AC 225 GLM. Could you help me with the electrical diagram? It happens that you have several disconnected cables and the selector rotor is broken. I will be very grateful. Greetings. colleague
Thank you for calling me out on it. Please help me improve your viewing experience. Let me know how I can fix it, or direct me to a video that can help with this problem. Thanks again.
It's difficult for me to write in Spanish, but I can read and speak with no difficulty, I will make a shot video of the workings and send that to you soon.

This one was also hard to turn and the spring had gotten under the center post-contact. I can't remember if that came out on the video.
That shaft is Lincoln P/N: 9SS13206 cost about 4 bucks if you buy from airgas. I just had to replace mine.
Thanks my friend I looting part
You have to pull OUT on the knob before rotating. I didn't know that until I disassembled the knob and saw from behind how it works.

Do you need to reconnect the wires, or replace the selector switch
Como saver si el transformador de maquina lincol esta quemado
Buenos dias hermano se puede soldar aluminio con ese tipo maquina Lincoln ac_ 225 saludo
Yes, but you need argon and a tig torch.
Si, pero nesesitas una tig pistola I argon gas.
You should be able to buy parts from Lincoln .
Yes, I think that you can still buy the entire machine. Home depot or lowes had them or still sell them.👍
