Default On board air compressor FUSE?

i finally tried out my on board air pump to blow up a pool float and within 30 seconds i got an E4 error and it wouldn’t work.

Today I try again and the thing doesn’t even turn on. the cigarette lighter underneath doesn’t work either…..so i guess it’s a fuse.

i can’t find any info online, not even the manual! Does anyone know where the fuse is located?

thanks!

I had the same issue. Dealer put it in a couple weeks ago and when I went to test it on the spare it worked for a few seconds then blew a fuse. Changed fuse twice and blew both times. I believe it is fuse number 20 in the back directly opposite the compressor. Someone responded the the PowerfulUK video that they had the same issue and it was a bad compressor. They are due to replace mine tomorrow, so hoping that is the fix.

while we’re on it, does the engine need to be running to use the compressor??

is it helpful if it is? i’m thinking it shouldn’t matter

i pulled out the fuse, it was fine, then i put it back and the dumb thing works again.

i need to find the manual for this thing…

im starting to think this wasn’t the best way to spend 1000.
