I've had my arb twin a/c for about two years now. Been working great until yesterday when I went to air up my tires. I notice it starting running really rough as if one of the pistons stopped working. The air pressure dropped. I checked the fuse and air hoses for leaks. Everything looks good.

I was wonder if anyone has any ideas.

Here is an update on my ARB A/C, on one of the motors, there is a piston inside the pumps the air, a bolt broke and caused the air pressure to drop. I called ARB, they Fedex'd me a new motor with directions for free.

So now the unit is working again.

How did you diagnose the issue? I too have the same problem.
Thanks
