Hi George,

I might be the blind trying to lead the blind, but the way you described the
symptoms, I'd check the flapper valve that switches from recycled to outside
air and vice versa.  Air temp coming out of the vents under full a/c ought
to be on the order or 40 degrees, doors open, blower on high, etc.  Someone
mentioned an adjustment that controls how long the compressor stays on, I
think.  You might search for that;  it was recent.

HTH.

Cheers!

Jim Jordan
