- You’re testing a system that involves a fan, water pump, and compressor. The components are turned ON in sequence and sensor readings are taken, as per a written protocol that you’re following. The system is running as expected after the fan and water pump are turned ON. However, when you turn ON the compressor, it runs for about thirty seconds then stops, consistently. Swapping out the compressor for a different one seems to solve the problem.
