    Had a whole new system put in, checked fuses swapped relays etc compressor cuts off. Never had this problem before new system was put in. So it’s a new problem I have never had.
    They changed out a sensor near the compressor already. anyone know the fix ???

    A little more detail might help; by 'whole new system' do you mean compressor, condenser, expansion valve, lines, etc? Or just certain components? Was this done by a reputable shop, or a shade tree?

    Was the compressor new? Reman? OEM? After-market? Has the clutch power been verified?

    I’m going based off what shop is telling me. Reputable shop down here where I’m from. New everything but lines. Brand new compressor non oem. I’m thinking it’s low/high pressure switch . Going to pick up truck in a bit .

    Does it come on then run a short while then cut off?

    Could be just low on refrigerant.

    no sir, ac shop checked that. I went over there today. Apparently they bypassed the low/high pressure switch and the thermostat and the issue continues. I’m really thinking it’s gonna be a wire that is making / breaking contact .
    He says it turns on/off with no rhym or reason and has no pattern. It can run for 5 seconds/ 5 min without iSSUES
