PROBLEM IS SOLVED
Updated with a link to a video
(Apologies for the shaky video!)
The gauge needle stops at about 5mm away from the green area and it does not go any further.
Air is escaping from the black cap which is screwed on top of the gauge with pin holes all around it. It only happens when the needle is about 5mm from the green area and the air stops escaping when it's below that point.
Compressor is always on.
Removed covers and checked all pistons, no air leak detected. Although there was a lot of moisture on the compressor gauge, when I unscrewed the bottom bit there was actually water running down.
Is it a problem with the gauge itself or is there an air leak somewhere we couldn’t find?
We just can’t figure out what the problem is.
Any help will be appreciated.
Many thanks
