I see an air compressor mounted in front near the generator that has a yellow coiled hose with coupler tied to the gen. What is this for? Can it be used for tire inflation? If so, how do I switch it on? Photos attached.

' The compressor  operates the air horn , the Pac Brake , and the step cover if you have them. It should come on automatically when you start the vehicle and go off automatically by its self as it has a pressure switch. One hose should go directly to the Pac Brake and a 1/4" plastic tube towards the front. Up front on the drivers side there should be a small reservoir.  It maybe could be used to inflate tires, but require some fancy plumbing. If you can prove power is reaching the compressor and it won't start, probably time for a new one. Try Amazon.  Pete, '99 sahara, 30'
