I recently had new freon added (I had a service valve installed) and wonder if they did something to screw it up. The compressor runs but about every 90-120 seconds, it clicks off then immediately restarts (the fan doesn't even stop spinning). It's very annoying and I'd like to figure out what's wrong. I had the capacitor checked and there's nothing wrong with it. Maybe a bad switch somewhere? Any ideas? Thanks.
