Good evening guys this is my first time on this forum. Brought this compressor 10 months ago. Wired it up, been working like a beast since day one. With no leaks what so ever I tighten everything up on day one, believe me it had leaks lol. Today I used in the morning to blow out the garage cycled correctly no problems, left to town for a couple hours come back to finish doing other things and I noticed the pressure gauge was down all the way to 40PSI upon inspection I find the breaker is tripped so I tried to reset it tripped again. For some reason the motor is throwing sparks when I try to reset the breaker. I can understand maybe a motor issue maybe but how did I loose the pressure in the tank I know for a fact it doesn’t leak. Fixing to get with Quincy about the warranty but if anyone can lead me in the right direction I definitely appreciate it I really don’t feel like messing with this warranty I need this thing running any questions let me know thank you from South Louisiana.

If the motor sparks it is time to buy a new motor.

As for the drop in pressure, you have a leak!

Maybe it didn't unload right the last time it ran. Drain air everywhere possible and try again.
