ABR Twin On Board Air !EXPLOSION!

Well, I was airing up a tire in my driveway this afternoon and I noticed that the compressor had an unusual sound as it was cycling. All of the sudden, BOOM and I lost pressure. The cylinder that has the lines that attach the locker lines had blown apart. The strange thing is I had to disconnect the main power line to get the compressor to stop cycling as it kept going at like 1/2 power even after shutting it down by the switch in the cab. ( @crashnburn80 any ideas here?)
I was able to get the cylinder back together but once I hooked up the main power again the compressor whats to continually (and lightly) cycle. When I unplug the power I can hear air leaking from what sounds like one of the main compression cylinders.

What say the hive? Why does it want to run continuously now, why do I have a leak, and what's the possible remedy?

 

Damn and I was pissed because my pressure switch went out on mine last week.

Looks like it's just the thru bolt that broke easily replaceable.

Maybe wile it's running try pulling one fuse then the other to see which side is running

 

That thing still under warranty?

 

It actually looked like the stopper knot on the All Thread didn't have enough thread to bite. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did.
Just don't know why I am now having electrical and air leak know. I assume the rapid loss of pressure messed something up.

 

Where are the fuses located?

 

Maybe, I'll need to check the paperwork. How long is the warranty anyway?

 

I don't see anything on their website as far as warranty information.

 

If you used the factory wiring they have 2 40mps fuses near the battery.

Also is it building pressure? The dual compressors do have a cooling fan that usually stays on wile the compressor has power.

 

It's two years but their site says doesn't cover "wear and tear" whatever the hell that means.

 

The price these are they should be forever warrantied

 

It's building but not much. The cylinder the exploded appears to be keeping what little pressure is building. It's leaking from elsewhere...I think.

 

^This^

 

I thought that's what a warranty was for...

 

I just reached out to ARB about two weeks ago. Had a issue with my compressor that’s about a little over a year old. They had me troubleshoot. Turned out to be the pressure switch. There pretty helpful if you don’t mind doing the troubleshooting

 

At over 1,000 bucks and this system runs my ARB Air Lockers...I am happy to have some professional guidance trouble-shooting as well.

 

Shoulda got the ARB single.

 

Yea they asked if I had original harness, switch and had me checking voltage with a meter. I also had to take it apart to check the actual motor out.

yep. I love my single

 

Why?

 

Note: System runs off S-Pod...

 

Where is the pressure switch? (PN?)
This makes sense if it failed, building too much pressure and blowing the cylinder apart. Might have something to do with the continual running too.
