Mine does the same thing since I recharged the AC last year when I
bought the car. I also have the same Fan Fail circuit, I am still
annoyed by the kicking on and off, and am thinking about buying the
lower amp fans to help with this. I thought I heard that there is
an adjustment to the low pressure switch that should be used to make
the cycling closer to 45 seconds, or whatever it states in the
manual. Is this correct?
