Welcome T. Greenwood. Sorry that you're having trouble with your air compressor.

It would have been very helpful to see a digital photo of both sides of the compressor to try and spot an ON/OFF switch. I guess you've tried to find one with no luck?

Find the pressure switch on your compressor and see if there is a toggle on the side of it that says RUN or START or OFF. If there is one, make sure that it's in the RUN or START position.

Go to this page, and see what other issues might be involved. Check out the contributions and answers at the bottom of the page.

Good luck.

Bill
