+1 on checking the wiring as the seat moving and/or things being crammed (deliberately or accidentally) can break a crimp connection easily. BTDT
Then fuse and if so, look for the reason.....may be contamination at the fuses contact area. Heat builds up when there is corrosion and heat melts the fusing element.
I think those bags are made of Neoprene and they are pretty resistant to cracking like natural rubber cracks with age. However, if you know the pump is pumping, and you haven't blown a tube loose, or rubbed a hole in one by the seat's movement, then you may have a crack in your air bag. The bag seals seem to be pretty bullet proof.
Last, I find that they are sensitive to cold temperatures. Where one holds pressure in the summer, it won't in the winter if the tractor sits for awhile unused, seat will settle down. Haven't figured out the smoking gun on that as yet due to the difficulty in trouble shooting the suspect components under the seat. I have even removed mine (exiting through the rear window of the cab....working alone is a neat trick to pull off) and had it on the work bench and couldn't find anything leaking. Course, considering the volume of air in the bag, even a minute leak over a week or so could deplete the contents.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
