The electric print should tell for sure which one is for the HWH.Mike Quote Selected

Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #28 – June 19, 2021, 08:41:32 pm WELL...Back to the drawing board.Went to each individual "little black" button and pushed them in.None of them were protruding further than the other.Still nothing... Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #29 – June 19, 2021, 08:46:32 pm The HWH compressor is 15 amps. Second from the top on the left. Find your drawing same number as this and confirm. Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #30 – June 19, 2021, 09:26:36 pm yes I tried resetting all of them. None of them seemed to be protruding so I just reset them all.Same issue...bewildering.. Quote Selected

Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #33 – June 19, 2021, 09:41:12 pm thanks...two totally different schematics. Will try that one mike and hopefully that will work. Just a gentle push is all it takes on the breakers right? Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #34 – June 19, 2021, 09:43:31 pm Can you jumper 12v directly to the air compressor to see if it starts ?Tim Fiedler Gen-Pro.biz 630 240-9139 Quote Selected

Have you checked to see if it's working? Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #37 – June 19, 2021, 11:22:40 pm Not sure how to do that. Can you explain please?Peter Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #38 – June 19, 2021, 11:56:48 pm Should be two wires leading into the actual pump ( on mine red and black) if no disconnects, cut wires and begin by adding crimp on disconnects so the pump is easily removed in future if needed, while you have bare ended wires, take jumper cables from a car battery and put the red to the positive jumper and black to negative jumper ( I use short jumper wires with alligator clips on each end). If pump starts, your issue is wiring related. If it doesn't start it likely is a bad motor or frozen piston in the pump.Tim Fiedler Gen-Pro.biz 630 240-9139 Quote Selected 2 Likes

Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #40 – June 21, 2021, 07:59:55 pm Take the cover off and see if the contact points are open or closed. If they're open then close them and see if the compressor starts. If they're already closed then you have a different problem such as wiring, fuse, switch, etc.Use something like a small screwdriver to push the contacts together (one is fixed and one moves) and also to open them afterwards.There is some useful information here;9 Common Well Pump Pressure Switch Problems Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #41 – June 21, 2021, 10:12:19 pm Man oh man this confuses me. My compressor is mounted on the same rack as my inverts attached to the roof of my bay. What component do I have to take apart to look at the contacts? I am going to guess this is going to be a major project as I will have Carefully remove the compressor( in very tight space) to get to that. Quote Selected
Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #42 – June 22, 2021, 12:02:37 am Peter, mine is a squarish box with a grayish cover. Loosen the nut and pull the cover off. You will see the contacts, mine would stick. I left the compressor on the shelf in my coach and moved all the rest of the parts to the side wall of the bay so they were more accessible.

Re: 12 volt air compressor fuse size Reply #43 – June 23, 2021, 11:49:41 pm I am going to start with changing the pressure switch(3) in the HWH. First of besides the Stewart Warner brand is there another I can but on Amazon that is just as good and perhaps cheaper....and will ship to a Canadian address?The other, perhaps more important question is.... is there anything I have to do special besides unscrewing the pressure switch and re attaching the two wires? Do I have to dump the air, turn off the salesman switch, etc before doing this replacement?Like I mentioned I am going to start thee as the HWH service manuals kinda says things revolve around the pressure switches. If that Does not do the trick I. Getting my compressor working I may try the pressure switch on the actual compressor. The other factoring thing is there is very little room to work on the compressor as it is located on the same rack as the inverter on the bay ceiling Quote Selected
