There are 3 things that could cause this.
1 A bad otterstadt switch or if you have the old style pipe, an air
bubble.
2 A bad or old, undersize circuit breaker for the cooling fans.
3 A low charge of refrigerent in the A/C system
For #1 To test it just jumper the 2 wires at the switch and see if
that helps.
For #2 Listen if it clicks when the fans go on and off.
For #3 Does this happen if the A/C is off? If so then it is not the A/C.
Since you say the A/C is not blowing cold my guess is that the
quick-cycling only happens when the A/C is on and you need some
refrigerent.

so, very noticeable. What gives wires seem fine and connections are
tight, the same results @ higher R M P's too. New Alt. and the fan
fix is installed for about 6 months with no problems until now.
Except A/C stopped blowing cold at same time.
