What does it mean when your ac compressor kicks on and off?
Short cycling, when the compressor constantly shuts on and off, is one of the most common air conditioning problems. Several conditions cause short cycling, including a faulty or obstructed thermostat, leaking refrigerant, icy coils or an HVAC system that is too big for the building in which it is installed.
Is it normal for ac compressor to cycle on and off?
It is normal for the AC compressor to switch on and off. Every time the air becomes hotter, the air conditioning compressor cycles to cool it until the required temperature. The compressor may cycle on and off at an interval of a few minutes. There is no particular cycle time for the air conditioner compressor.

Why does my GMC Terrain blow heat out at my feet?
The service manager called back and said that it’s a Freon leak at the condenser. (Why that would make the AC in auto mode blow heat out at your feet with it is 88 outside, 98 inside and the temp is set at 74 is beyond me). They’d help us out of the car, but we’d have to pay use of the vehicle equivalent to Florida’s lemon law.

Why does my GMC air conditioner stop working?
For about 5 miles the A/C worked normally till we hit a R/R and the bump made it stop blowing cold air and he was finally convinced. Back to the shop and 30 min later they found the problem. Turned out to be the low pressure switch, (under hood on bottom of small tank) it was corroded and causing a loss of electrical contact.
