Any way to test my compressor?

Refurbed my old compressor yesterday (new piston ring, o-ring and drying granules) and now its not working, got 12v going to it though.

Had front air strut burst on me last week, and was playing around with the raise/lower control to try and lower the rear after the front burst, could i of burnt out the actual motor in the compressor??

Actually one of the easiest jobs on an L322!!! Land Rover Addict

Cheers all, seem a refurb isnt the best thing for a compressor then.... Have ordered complete new internals for the black turtle shell so will fit that when it arrives and go from there.

Fingers crossed....
