Mini air compressors

June 10, 2013, 10:19:05 am

Can someone please explain the purpose of the mini air compressors. I have a 1998 40ft affinity with two mini compressors. One compressor I do hear run when I adjust my ride height on on touch pad, so I understand what one is for. I'm sure the air horns run off one of these pumps, which one I don't know. The second compressor I question, I never hear it run, I did test it with 12 volts and it did work. This compressor's 12 volt supply hooks to a switch which sits next to the compressor, I don't know what activates it, the air supply from this compressor goes to a mini water seperator, which goes somewhere i don't know. That water seperator has a automatic drain valve on the bottom of it, when I do jumper 12 volts to the compressor the air just blows straight out the automatic drain valve. Any experience with this would be great thanks.

One is a compressor, the other a vacuum pump to operate the heating cooling controls.
