Default Issue with my welder, need input

As the title says, I'm having issues with my welder and trying to figure out how to fix it without sending it to the repair shop. It's a Miller 180 mig that is 3 or 4 years old. Today, when I flipped the switch to turn it on, it sounded like normal. The fan came on and it powered up. When I pulled the trigger though, nothing. Not a click or anything. If I bent the hose on an angle right below the gun, it would work again. Sometimes it would work for a while, other times I had to keep the hose bent to keep the wire feeding. Any thoughts?
