Check internal fuses and breakers first. Then see if the contactors are closing. If they are not check the 24 volt contacter for coil continuity. If that is okay, check for voltage at the wire feed motor with an analog meter. Put it in a plstic bag and tape the bag where the test leads come out- there is a big magnet in the movement. Keep the meter in the bag to protect it, but check the motor to see if it is seeing power impulses from the control board. If it is not gettin pulsed power when trigger is pressed, suspect a failure of the SCRs on the control board.

SOURCE: i have a Clarke weld

I do not know of a US source for these Clarke EN130 Wire drive wheel parts. I don't know of any interchangeable subs either. Your welder was made in Italy and the wheel drive is metric.
This is probably your best bet in trying to find any parts for it:

Not sure if you knew this:

Clarke Power Products Files in Toledo
Clarke Power Products Inc., a wholesale distributor of power equipment from Perrysburg, Ohio, filed a Chapter 11 petition on Jan. 8, 2009 in Toledo, saying it owes $7.9 million to the secured creditor Key Bank.
Court papers say assets of $13.8 million are comprised of accounts receivable, inventory and cash. Clarke’s products include air compressors and power tools.
The case is In re Clarke Power Products Inc., 09-30071, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Northern District of Ohio (Toledo).

I need clarke mig welder partes for the gun on a 130en. I can't find them any place, can you help me find them. Thank you.

Hi:
It will be better to adapt a new gun. Go to your nearest Praxair (www.praxair.com) store and ask for a tweco mini gun with a clarke adapter. Tweco accesories are available at ALL welding stores and it's a cheap gun also.

I have the clark en130 i want to weld stainless what do i need to add

Just a trimix gas, if you are using solid SS wire. If it is core shielded SS wire, you are all set up.
Trimix gas it's a mix of Argon, helium and CO2.

Getting lots of splatter weld will not hold

Check polarity of machine.
Solid wire with gas assist will need straight polarity ground clamp to negative side.
Flux core wire no gas, need reverse polarity; ground cable to positive side.
