Porter Cable Air Compressor Stopped Working | 6 gal. Pancake Air Compressor Won't Start | How to Fix

This has happened to me twice now and it's due to the dropping, banging, and shaking of the compressor. Frankly, I really like this compressor and it's super convenient. I use it primarily for my nail gun, but it has dozens of uses.
You're looking for loose cables and connections. The hots, neutrals, and ground can come off or loose, and here I show you where to find them.

That's exactly what was wrong with mine! I CANNOT afford a new one. Thank you so much.

[@rileyhodgson4335]

Worked for me!! Thank you!

[@TheDIYrealtor]

So good to hear

[@TheJonboix]

What type of bit did you use?
It's hard to see in that little hole.
I tried a Phillips but it doesn't work.

[@TheDIYrealtor]

It’s a Phillips for mine but it has to be a pretty long one. Try pressing into it a bit while turning it and see if that helps..

Gracias señor!

[@wrsmith711]

my compressor works electrically but no air comes out of the brass fittings. Any ideas?

[@lupelopez1950]

Did you fix yours? Mine has the same going on. Couldn’t put air in tires. Pressure is good but no air comes out

[@wrsmith711]

@@lupelopez1950 no, I may ask the guys at Home depot where I bought it. nearest repair shop is way downtown.

[@grilledcheesesammy]

Try putting a new chuck on the end?

[@judykonopka9029]

Wouldn't it be a good idea to add some electrical tape so you can keep this from happening again?

[@TheDIYrealtor]

Yea probably not a bad idea!
