I have a 200 Miller welder generator that stopped working when I set it outside for a few days to pour some concrete and must have gotten wet although I had it covered. Won't make any power anywhere. Anyone have any ideas.

If I'm looking at the right machine, it shows to have a GFIC protected outlet. Not sure what all that would control, but be worth checking.

Also any other switches that could have been accidentally moved while it was being carried.

If it got rained on, might open it up and blow it out, let it dry. If it is wet inside, need to disconnect the battery first.

My Miller portable welder does not work after it sits a while, the engine runs but no power, get a good ground and keep trying to strike an arc, it takes a lot of tries and I have to hit the rod very hard but it always works.

Thanks, like I say it won't weld or generate 110 power either, had been good until I left it out. I wonder if it has a breaker?
