Aux Compressor Troubleshootingand solenoid repair

Still in the process of troubleshooting my aux compressor issues since installing an on/off switch for the compressor motor.  Issues of running constantly and heating element staying on and drawing amps from the battery.  Thanks to Barry Brideau and Beamalarm, ran across a couple of his excellent maintenance of useful logs that seem to address these as follows:
1- Aux compressor troubleshooting..
HWH Aux Compressor Troubleshooting
2-Solenoid repair...
Solenoid Repair

However, it says to check LED's on a"front air output control board" this board is one which I cannot locate.  Need some guidance from the forum.

Hmm... that one is almost word for word (and photos) a post of Steve's from the forum... HWH Solenoid Valve Rebuild

Right on Michelle...I see Barry gave acknowledgement to Steve prior to including it in his Beamalarm log.  I see from some of the photos that the fixture that is hot on mine is the solenoid and still puzzled why it remains hot to the touch?  Also still looking forward to some feedback on the location of the "front air output board"; is there such a board on my 2001 U320?
