A\C Question 2016 F 350 6.7
Recently had the system on my 2016 F 350 evacuated and refilled due to what I thought was short cycling. No leaks were found. The compressor still cycles too often for me. On a hot day, 90* on max recirc, the cycling begins 10 minutes after start up. It runs 20 seconds on, and about 9 seconds off. The temps decrease and settle in about 42* then as the comp cycles there is about a 1* fluctuation, whereas it fluctuated around 3* as it was cooling down. My tech says the evap sensor is ok, The blend doors are operating at full range, pressures are Ok. I am comparing it to others and just never feel that puff of warm air as the compressor cycles. In my opinion, it cycles too rapidly but I just wanted to see what others have seen before I dump more money into this thing chasing a ghost. Also, I have owned it since new and never really noticed this as I do now.

Either the low pressure switch or the high pressure safety switch is bad. With those reading the compressor should not be cutting out. Also the low side is a bit high relative to the high side, so there's a small chance the compressor isn't pumping strong enough.

Oh, and no low pressure switch on this one.
