Did you get to the bottom as to why the compressor failed? otherwise your replacement compressor may go the same way.

It may have been the relay which may have caused the compressor to overheat and burn out by running forever, which with a new fuse and relay should now be resolved.

However it could be a leak from one of the air struts which is causing the compressor to run for extended periods which will ultimately kill the replacement compressor.
