    As others have said... usually a symptom of a faulty switch or blocked pressure port due to corrosion

    Assuming the PRV and Pressure Switch are not integrated
    1 - remove pressure switch (leave wiring connected), run compressor if tank is empty, either way air should freely escape switch port - if not port is blocked
    2 - remove wire from switch, compressor should stop - if not wire is low resistance to earth (pressure switch should be on earth side of comp not 12V)

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
