What is wrong with a compressor that will only air up to 60 psi and not shut off?

I had the same problem but the compressor would shut down from over heating. It turned out to be the pressure relief valve leaking. Listen for leaks. I ordered a new valve but never installed it because it turned out that mine was just stuck. Once I freed it, it has worked fine since. Also : The compressor is not shutting off because it is not reaching the shut off pressure. Check for air leaks. If it will not develope more than 60 psi, it may be worn out.

What is wrong if the compressor will not cut off in a central air?
Most likely, it is a stuck contactor or relay that controls the compressor motor. If the compressor continues to run after the blower inside the house has shut off, the only way to stop it is to kill the power, either at a dedicated switch or sub-panel for the air conditioning, or at your main breaker panel. Turn off the power to the air conditioning and furnace system until you can have the unit serviced.

Why does your compressor on the air suspision run for only 30 seconds then shut off?
Because that's how long it takes to fill the bags. On the other hand, if there is a leak, the compressor will only run continuously for 90 seconds before shutting off to keep it from burning out. Then you'll get a "Check Air Ride" warning on the console.

It could happened if air flow trough heat exchanger is not sufficient and to prevent aicing compressor will shut off. Possible reason - clogged air ducts or heat exchanger, when air speed is slow the cooling coil air temp drop, if temp drop below 4c the senor shut off the compresor , when temp rise above 4c it start again
