no. compressor doesn't click on and off. it just runs consistently. i turned AC on full max and looked under the hood for a few minutes. uh-oh. this sounds expensive.

Sounds like the orifice tube filter is clogged this is a filter that is located inside of the high side line of the A/C system.

Hi.. 2010 Ford focus... A/c blows cold only a/c on with recirculation button on only... blows cold about 50 with temp 93 outside.. And a/c cycled on and off slowly .. Does the compressor has to run consent? Bad pressure switch?
