Re: Pressure Switch Not Working?

It is bleeding because you have the high side input connected to one of the output ports. If you look at the bottom of the regulator there will be an arrow showing the direction of the flow. The port that lines up with the non pointy end of the arrow is the input, the other 3 ports are the output and they will bleed off any pressure in excess of the pressure the regulator is set at.
