York Compressor Onboard Air Wiring Diagram - Relay, Pressure Switch & 10A Fuse
Wiring diagram showing a compressor circuit with battery, relay, 10A fuse, pressure switch, and rocker switch plus relay pinout.
This document is a simple hand-drawn (computer-drafted) wiring diagram showing how to wire an air compressor (labeled 'comp') to a vehicle's 12-volt electrical system using a standard automotive relay. The battery ('batt.') positive terminal feeds the relay, and the relay's switched output passes through a 10A fuse to the compressor, which is grounded on its other side. A pressure switch, grounded on one side, ties into the relay control circuit. A rocker switch, fed by a '12v igntion src.' (12V ignition source) and grounded, provides operator control of the relay. An inset detail (indicated by an arrow from the relay symbol) shows the standard relay pinout: pin 30 connects to battery, pin 87 to the compressor, pin 85 to the switch/control circuit, and pin 86 to ground, with a 12V ignition source feeding the control side. The diagram is useful for anyone installing an onboard air compressor (such as a York-style compressor conversion, per the filename) in a truck, showing power routing, fusing, grounding points, and relay terminal assignments. No vehicle year, make, model, part numbers, or wire colors are stated in the document itself.

Frequently asked questions
- What size fuse does this compressor wiring diagram call for?
- A 10A fuse, placed between the relay output and the compressor.
- How are the relay pins wired in this diagram?
- Pin 30 goes to battery, pin 87 to the compressor, pin 85 to the switch/control circuit, and pin 86 to ground, with a 12V ignition source feeding the control side.
- What switches control the compressor in this setup?
- A pressure switch (grounded on one side) and a rocker switch fed by a 12V ignition source both tie into the relay control circuit.
- Where does the compressor get its ground?
- The compressor has its own ground connection on the side opposite the fused relay feed; the battery negative, rocker switch, and relay pin 86 are also grounded.
- Is the compressor powered directly from the battery?
- Battery positive feeds the relay (pin 30); the relay's switched output (pin 87) then powers the compressor through the 10A fuse.
