Re: 2001 RAV4 AC Problem/ Goes on and OFF

Saw it after overservicing a system once. Compressor would cycle on and off every 5 seconds or so. Is there a regular time interval or is it more random. If it's random I would suspect an electrical problem. Is the belt tight?

Likely either freon is overcharged (if you had service recently) or undercharged (if you have a leak).
