The pressure relief valve is pretty much a stand-alone part on your compressor, so if it's not working correctly there's really nothing else that could be wrong other than having a bad valve. Parts like this do wear out or break down, so your first line of attack should be to just go ahead and replace it.

Doing a search on that string shows a bunch of results for that part, but nothing with that exact number (0100211A-3). You may have better luck since you have the original part to use as a guide. If you have the original owner's manual you may be able to verify the part number for yourself.
Anyway, the part looks like it's fairly cheap; I was seeing prices around $10 USD and replacement should consist of just unscrewing the old one and screwing the new one in (the use of teflon tape is probably a good idea).
