It's a normal process of "cycling", wherein the compressor is capable of moving more freon gas than the system is capable of handling. Pressure switches within the A.C. system switch the compressor on and off, in a normal cyclic state, to keep the pressures from going over a safe preset level.

Signs of bad air cond compressor ford focus?
Things to check first: Turn on the A/C control - open the hood and look at the compressor and observe whether or not the clutch is engaging (clicking on and off). If it isn't then check the fuse/electric relay that control the compressor. If the compressor operates but cycles rapidly (clicks on and off), that could be a sign of low refrigerant, have it checked. If these easy do-it-yourself checks are inconclusive then you need a mechanic.
Why does Ac low side pressure go up and down while the compressor clicks on and off?

Why does a 2003 Saturn Vue air conditioner have a high liquid pressure that pulsates and a low vapor pressure and the compressor clicks off and on?
More than likely it is low on refrigerant and the compressor is kicking off on the low pressure switch. After it is off for a few seconds the low pressure switch resets and starts up again, runs a few seconds and off again. Continuous cycle of off and on.

95 Honda Odyssey Ac chargedblow cold air But when come to stop air compressor began to clicks off and on van adle up and down. WHY?
I believe even though you are getting cold air when you are under a load, you may still be low on freon. Being low will cause the compressor the click on and off. If you have a gauge to check the pressure in the system, that is where I would start to trouble shoot. If not, Try your mechanic, they can tell you if it is low. I would bet on that being your problem
