SOLUTIONS TO COMMON ISSUES 

Issue: Compressor inoperable. 

Solution 1: Check all switches to make sure they are ON. 
Solution 2: Check the fuse; if blown, disconnect compressor from power and replace the fuse. 
Solution 3: Allow compressor to cool off for 30-60 minutes. 
Solution 4: Check pressure switch, replace if damaged or inoperable. 

 
Issue: Air horn is inaudible 

Solution 1: Check all switches to make sure they are ON. 
Solution 2: Assure air tank is pressurized. 
Solution 3: Check the fuse; if blown, disconnect compressor from power and replace the fuse.  
Solution 4: Examine electrical connection for damage or corrosion, secure electrical connections. 

 
Issue: Excessive moisture in horn. 

Solution 1: Depressurize and drain the tank. 
Solution 2: Relocate the on-board air system to a drier location. 

 
Issue: Continual cutting-off of Thermal overload protection. 

Solution 1: Relocate the on-board air system to a drier, cooler location. 
Solution 2: Replace the compressor. 

 
Issue: Excessive vibration or noise 

Solution 1: Tighten system components. 
Solution 2: Replace the compressor.  

 
Issue: Loss of pressure of tank when compressor is shut off. 

Solution 1: Tighten drain cock. 
Solution 2: Use soap and water solution on air connections, and tighten connections or repair leaks where needed. 

 
Issue: Compressor runs continuously and has low air flow. 

Solution 1: Decrease the frequency of use. 
Solution 2: Use soap and water solution on air connections, and tighten connections or repair leaks where needed.
