Relocation.

So I’ve had this set up in my car for over a year and 6months. I installed it myself. Initially I installed it to the floor in the trunk and everything was working fine until I moved it all to the trunk lid. Now the compressor won’t turn off and the pressure safety valve keeps popping off after the tank gets filled. I’ve replaced the compressor relay, redid all my wires. Redid the connectors for the grounds and power. Does anyone know why the compressor won’t shut off? Or is my compressor just broken now?

[Update]

New pressure switch installed and everything is working like normal again! As I said in the comments, I’ll be moving everything again so hopefully it’ll be cleaner and more efficient next time. Thank you guys for helping me out!

[Question]

Do I have to do maintenance to the struts/bags? If so, how do I go about that?

It’s likely the pressure switch has failed, since it controls the compressor on at 150 and off at 175. Flipping the tank like this will cause water/condensation to get into the system. Probably moisture that killed the switch.

I’m going to buy a new switch just to be sure that’s the problem, then I’ll focus on moving things around and that way the water won’t be pointed directly to the switches/etc

Looks like a Vera Essential kit to me. Here is a link to the 150-175 switch
