Will not power up. Cannot locate overload pressure switch.

I'm assuming you've done all the checks to make sure you have power to the compressor?

Unplug it and open the tank drain so that pressure falls to 0 PSI. Close drain, plug in compressor. What happens?

Do you hear a click or see any movement at the pressure switch? If not, double check that you've got power to the pressure switch. If you have power, give the switch a rap on the bottom with the handle of the screw driver. Anything happen?

Please respond as a comment here.

Cheers,
