Campbell Hausfeld 26 gal compressor

I have an electric Campbell Hausfeld air comprssor that will not run. I have been reading on-line posts but I can't find one that says how to test if the problem is the pressure switch or the pump motor. How can I by-passing the pressure switch to test the motor ?

Welcome to the forums.

There should be a pressure switch with a removable cover where you can check.
There are several different models so I can't give you any further info without a model number or picture.

I bypassed the pressure switch and the pump motor runs so I ordered a pressure switch replacement. Hasn't arrived yet so I will see what happens.
