Why does my Hitachi Quadricool TM window AC compressor cut off every 1 minute and comes back after 2 - 3 minutes?

The air conditioner works fine when switched on for the first time in the day. The compressor cools for few minutes. Then the cut off happens every minute. The cut off period is 2 - 3 minutes. This is regardless of the temperature setting and the outside climate condition. I have tried changing mode, fan speed, temperature, everything. Any suggestions?

Hi, I just bought a Friedrich air conditioner - CP12F10. I bought it 7/23/11 from a retail store. It's been working fine until this weekend. When I turn it on, it sounds after a while, like it's...

The water you hear is the water in in the drip/drain pan. In most cases, that sound is normal. However, if you don't have the rear of the unit tilted down at least 1/4" to 1/2", the water can not reach the drain hole and drain away, as it should. Correcting that should help solve the other issues you mentioned.

Hope this helped you and thanks for choosing FixYa.

Is the AC set on an energy saving mode. Together with this program if the thermostat is defective the same symtoms can appear. So please check on the thermostat and replace.
Since the compressor is cutting off the cooling does not take place to the extend that is set.

Ge model agv12abg1 window air conditioner thermal overload cut's unit off after about 2 minutes, (unit get's extremely hot on outside right upper corner of the case), but will cool in approx 1 minute and...

sounds to me as if the heater and a/c may possibly coming on at the same time causing too many amps to be pulled from the electrical box causing the overload to be tripping. You should also check to insure there is a clean coil. If there is a dirty coil or any type of blockage to the coil it will cause a compressor to over heat and trip the overload switch.
