I got some time to go take a look at my problem. When it failed 2 days
ago I check that I had power at the outlet and that the reset switch on
the motor was not tripped. Since my compressor is only 30 gallon I
disconnected it from the piping and pull it out to work on the unit. I
plugged it in before I started working on it and it started right up. I
look around a bit and found the source of the problem. I am short on
outlets in my garage, so sometimes I have to un-plug one thing and plug
in another. When my compressor had stopped it turns out that I had
unplugged the compressor, but I had plugged in my bench grinder!
Twice! What dopey mistake.
