RE: Compressor not starting automatically

There are three wires going to the sensor/switch. Live (12v) , earth and a yellow wire. I measured the voltage on the yellow wire as the pressure increased, and there was no difference throughout (0.1...

RE: Compressor not starting automatically

Hi John, Thanks for your reply. A known working sensor may help to solve this. What is confusing me is I've checked continuity between the switching pin of the relay (negative switched) and any of the...
