    Thanks Prakash.

    While trying to create auto contacts using 'BCs menu-> Create->Auto contact', why does the message 'Contact does not exist' appears?

    Have sent the snapshot in the FTP link.

    Can you change vicinity value and check if that helps?

    Hi Prakash,
    Tried that too. 
    I have tried several iterations before meshing (though it doesn't work), after meshing etc.,The auto contact is not getting created.
    I am using Version 14.0.
    The same message appears as no contact exist.
    I have attached the hm file of the same in the FTP
    Could you help out on what might be the reason by seeing that?

    @Karth,

     

    Between which components are you facing the issue?

     

    I am able to create contact between coupler and case coil without any issues.
