That's cool and I really appreciate your taking the time to respond (sincerely, not being sarcastic at all), but you might as well have typed that all in Klingon because I have no clue what any of that means. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

Like I said, I know Jack-squat about electrical issues...I can tell a 110 outlet from a 220, and I can replace a fuse/ re-set a breaker, and I can even MIG weld (sort'a) but I wouldn't know a &quot;Variable Frequency Drive&quot; if one fell out of the sky, landed on my head and started to wiggle.

When you mention AC/DC, the first thing that comes to my mind is Angus Young and Brian Johnson.

Can you break that back down into layman's terms?

Also, this compressor has a &quot;thingy&quot; built in that lets the compressor freewheel once it hits a preset pressure but keeps the electric motor running so it doesn't have to work so hard to restart when the pressure drops enough to cycle it through again. Only problem is, said &quot;thingy&quot; is currently malfunctioning, has been for quite some time. I showed the tech today and he's supposed to consult w/another tech to see if they can figure out why it's not working correctly.

There...I don't feel so dumb now, save for the need to use the word &quot;thingy&quot; in lieu of the appropriate technical term.
