..to get the compressor running, or has done up until now, since after some troubleshooting, I've discovered that a light tap on the left-hand side of the control panel is all it now needs, (which is better for my neighbour since his bedroom is underneath). I've cleaned all contacts in the control panel and checked for any soldering is that has gone dry. Specifically, It seems to be that tapping the black 'ITW Ispracontrols' box on the left hand side of the control panel is what it takes for the compressor to kick in (the lights work at properly all times).
A replacement control panel will cost about £80 including postage, and probably unnecessary if it's just a bad connection. Is it possible to get inside the black box to try to find a bad connection inside? Any advice would be welcome
