    I checked for power and I got my answer, and another question. First, I had/have power all the way to the compressor. In frustration I wacked the compressor housing, and it started! I don't know how standard they are, but there are two parts to mine, the top that has the valves and the power enters to it there, then the bottom that acctually does the compressing, and has the wires from the top to it, this bottom part is the part I wacked and started.

    Ok, so what does this mean?

    Every month, I do what I hope is purging the water, I open the valve at the aux tank until the water/moisture stops comming out, is this enough? I'm sure my compressor is original, and I believe it's DC, it's how I measured the power by setting my meeter to ADC 20v. I'm not sure about pressure switch, or if it's relevant anymore now it's running.
