Pancake Compressor Power

[Leroy Eckert]

Where did you attach the positive and negative lines of the charger to get the
12v pump to work? Does the pump shut off automatically while attached to the
charger? Are you certain there is power at the fuse for the system?
I don't know anything about a BMC just trying to help.

Thanks for the reply. I know the pump works fine. As a work around I
put a 12 volt battery in the compartment with a trickle charger.
Works great but certainly is not a permanent fix. I have checked all
known fuses and especially given the one labeled air compressor
(Option) a double check. All is well with fuses.

I am still confused.

a pressure switch on top of the pump that cuts it on and off at
determined air pressure values. Mine also has an on/off switch. Have
you looked at the pressure switch to see if it has power? Power to
that probably comes from a relay which is located in or near a load
center. It is fused somewhere in the coach. If the fuse is blown, you
need to look for the reason. Just running a wire could cause other
problems.
