You don't really need the relay with a EDC. Just hook the pressure switch to a fused hot wire and a wire from the other prong on the switch to the clutch on the EDC.

it doesnt have prongs, its one of them new pressure switches with a relay built in, it has 4 wires coming out, 1 white that says connect to load or compressor power wire, 2 little red wire says connect to trigger/ switch positive, 3 big red wire says connect to fused positive power source, 4 black says connect to grounding point (or control switch) Dont get what all that means?

ummm....try unhooking the smaller red wire, and see if it shuts off. If it does, the switch might be stuck. Is the pressure switch new or used?
