2001 Eclipse A/C Cycles Very quick on and off!! HELP!! Please!?

I have a 2001 Eclipse. When I turned on my a/c the belt started to squeal as the clutch tried to engage twice and then the clutch stopped trying to engage. The light in my car would flash orange and green.





I figured the compressor was siege and had a repair shop replace the compressor and clutch as a unit. The system was flushed, oil was added, system was vacuumed and charged, and dryer (filter) was replaced.





Now, the new (compressor) clutch will continuously try to engage over and over again after I turn it on. The load on the engine seems normal as if I just turned it on, but it tries to engage every few SECONDS.





No fault light noted, and air is cold.





I understand it is suppose to turn on and off when needed, but this is cycle is right away, over and over again.





Help PLEASE!!!





Thank you for your time.

It either has a bad LOW Pressure switch or is low on freon...They may not have sealed the system correctly when they replaced the parts....





If the system doesnt have a total seal, the low pressure cycle switch will shut the compressor down....You need to take it back to the shop that repaired it and tell them that they did not do the job correctly...They will need to vacuum the system and check for leaks...





good luck
Reply:You should have a low pressure cutout switch on the acumulator with two wires to it.Unplug it,and jump the two wires out to see if that switch is bad.
Reply:Take back to shop and they need to see if it is low on freon or if the cycling swith is ba
