Ok, I have a 98 Town Car and the compressor turns on for 5-10 seconds then off. On then off etc…..
The air conditioner is not cold because of that. To keep the compressor on I removed the relay and jumped the terminals to turn it on. The low side was below 15 psi. I hooked up the 18oz can of Arctic Chill and put the whole can in.
After disconnecting the can, but keeping the gauge on I put the relay back in and watched the gauge go up and down.
So…
compressor on=gauge goes down to 25 psi THEN compressor turns off
pressure rises to 45/46 THEN compressor kicks ON And the pressure begins to go DOWN
pressure goes down to 25 AND compressor turns OFF.If I bypass the relay, the compressor runs and stays on.
Why is the pressure level fluctuating?? Is it supposed to fluctuate like that??
