Refrigeration compressor cycles off and on at most times including at highway speeds in temperate or hot weather.

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand your question. The compressor should cycle on and off. It is controlled by a high-pressure switch. Once a specific pressure is reached, the sensor signals to shut it down.

However, if it is clicking on and off quickly, that usually indicates low freon.

Let me know exactly what is happening. Also, let me know if the system is working at all. Also, here is a link you may find of interest:

Take care,

Joe
