Is the compressor relay anything special, or is it simply a SPST 30 amp relay?
I think the compressor is working too hard and I noticed that the thing was hot. Then I noticed the the Brown / Green connector seemed to be melting. It's likely that my old Dana is waiting for loved ones to pull the plug. I've got the coach at Jim K's place now and asked Nick to simply move the plumbed schrader and shutoff valve so that I can actually reach them when the coach is low, so that I can manually set the ride hight. That very nice feature is now located behind the tire in an absolutely inaccessible place when her belly is on the ground.
I've added wireless air to my wish list since the 6 solenoid + compressor are going to get expensive over time.
Here's an interesting newbie factoid - if the coach is low and you want to put your bottle jack under the bogie, you'd better call a panicking mother to lift up the coach first. Without a Jack Hook you will be SOL.
