Default My HF air compressor doesn't work

I have one of those $79.99 air compressors from HF. 2 weeks ago it worked
fine. Today it won't turn on. Can't find the instruction manual.
Any idea what I should do about it? I mean, besides buying a better tool
next time.

Yeh, it is plugged in.
Yeh, the circuit is live.
Yeh, it is full of oil.



It's an obviousity, but any chance there's still enough pressure in the
tank to keep the pressure switch off, waiting for it to drop down to the
turn on pressure?

Failing that, start circuit tracing from the line cord prongs back to
the motor windings.

Good luck,

Jeff
