Air Conditioner Kicking in and out!
Hi,
I have a 1997 F150 XLT 4X4 4.6
When the air conditioner is turned on it will work for awhile (Maybe 10-15 min) then will kick out. Puts out the same temp as if it were on the vent selection. It might kick back on in 20 min and can take up to 45 min. It seems if the truck is shut off for awhile and restarted, the air will be working again but only for a short time. I had the system drained, reoiled and recharged. I thought it was fixed but then it started again. When it works the air is perfectly cold. When the air kicks out I checked under the hood and the compressor is not engaged. Is there a switch for the compressor that may be bad? Any feedback and help would be appreciated.
Thanks
