ARB compressor problem

Just looking for some advice. I hooked up an ARB compressor on the weekend and it starts but then stops after about 5 secs.

I worked it out that its the part that the air hose connects to on top. I bought an air hose from ARB. It's seems the air is blocked from coming out. I took the part for the air hose off and it goes no problem. I put it back on and it cuts out.

I looked at the air hose connection and there is no opening for the air to come through.

Before I go to ARB I was wondering if any one else has had the same problem.

Not sure how the work, but mine has to be connected to a tyre for it to run.

It turns on at the switch, primes, then turns off (standby) until you connect it to tyres.

You mean it runs until the pressure switch turns it off?  That's pretty normal.

Once you connect it to a tyre it should start running again.
