air compressor issues - please help

well there's me thinking i can wait till the spring, but my compressor has other ideas

put the iid on and got the following message

C1A13-64 (2C) Pressure does not decrease when venting gallery - Algorithm based failure - signal plausibility failure

read up on here and it seems it's the exhaust vent blocked , on a hitachi pump

trouble is how the Censored hell do u get it out please ,

have got the rebuild kit and new piston seals, exhaust bolt etc, just waiting for the pushfit connectors

is it safe to use a blow lamp , but am concerned as its aluminium will cause more damage , or maybe a paint stripper hot air gun

soaked it in wd40 , it will get a can of plusgas

did hear about using the tip of a soldering iron to try and free it off , but worried i may do some damage

tried a socket but has rounded off

wondering can u drill it out or would i end up in a world of hurt

just wondered how the hell u managed to get it out please

thks so much in advanced Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

id recommend you put it back as not only does it protect from being damaged it suppresses the sound making it less noticable

i would say that the not venting is more to do with the dryer beads being blocked this stops the air from venting open up the dryer and have a look inside before going any further

10mm collet obsolete trick

know i'm fitting a new compressor but refuse to throw away my old hitachi pump all for an obsolete 10mm collet

had a look and could see it had a brass sleeve

so thought i would give it a go

can now then get a male to pushfit fitting to go onto the ends and rebuild the rest at my leisure

assume it's been done before , but on the off chance wished to share what i did

yes I did and all new seals as well if the orange light does not come on then the system works fine even to levelling when we get out like it should ?


after a few days orange light has gone off and not come back leaving for days
