I have a 94 Ranger w/2.3. I just replaced the timing belt and now the AC compressor cycles on and off every few seconds. I know they cycle repeatedly but this is too fast to cool. When it come on it tries to cool but the compressor doesn't stay on long enough.

I've NEVER had a seconds problem with the AC. It's worked perfectly since day one. It's starting to get a little warm here in the sunny south LOL

Thoughts?

 

You need a recharge.

 

Checked that, all looked "OK". Hard to tell with the compressor going on and off.

 

rapid cycling usually means it's low on freon.

 

I'll have that checked by a pro. Thanks guys.
