Unit just keeps running but will not build much more pressure nor shut down at 100 psi
Unloader valve gone
Remove the cover to the electric pressure switch and find a pressure adjustment screw. Loosen to lower and tighten to raise the pressure of when the compressor motor stops.
Possible bad limit switch. After numerous operations, sometimes the contacts weld together. Sometimes a tap with a screwdriver handle can break them loose, but the switch, if that is the problem, will need to be replaced. On some switches, if the cover is removed, the contacts are visible.
