ARB compressor blowing fuses (1 Viewer)

Has anybody had this problem, and if so what did you do?

How is it wired?

Just to the Cigarette Lighter?
What amperage of the fuse?

The compressor is wired directly to the battery, and fuse amperage is 30. Checked the battery its fully charged, the lockers seem to be getting power, so the only thing I can think about is the wiring harness or the compressor.

30 amp fuse blowing........thats very strange

Check the wires, maybe its a lose solder connection inside the compressor?

Does it start to run and dies then or doesnt do anything at all?

Check the switch........if it doenst run with a relay......these compressors produce much higher shorttime amps when they reach the turnoff pressure.

(hope my lousy english is well enough to know what i am on about)

From what I figured the motor was gone, I ended up sending the compressor to ARB for fixing or replacement since its still under warranty.

Hi Victor,

Have you had any other issues with the ARB lockers or gears you installed? I'm still planing to get my ARB and 4:88 gears installed this spring.

Thanks,
Bryan

No the lockers and gears work like a charm.
