IT COULD THAT YOUR SYSTEM IS EITHER OVERCHARGED OR UNDER CHARGED. ALSO CHECK YOUR FURNACE FILTER.AND MAKE SURE YOUR OUTDOOR UNIT is clear of dirt and obstructions.

There are several reasons for a compressor to overheating
High compression ratios are the result of either lower than normal suction pressures or higher than normal discharge pressures. Changes in suction pressure will affect the compression ratio more rapidly than changes in the discharge pressure. For this reason, it is important to keep the suction pressure at its highest possible value.
Causes of low suction pressure can include incorrect sizing of components, misadjusted or defective metering devices (TXVs), loss of refrigerant charge, plugged driers or strainers, and excessive suction line pressure drop.
Although not as sensitive to change as the suction pressure, the discharge pressure can still greatly affect the compression ratio. Keeping the discharge pressure within normal operating conditions is still important.
Causes of high discharge pressure can include dirty condensing coils, undersized discharge line, a blockage or recirculation of condenser air, erratic condenser fan operation, refrigerant overcharge, noncondensibles in the system, and an undersized condenser.

What could cause overheating in a Nissan Frontier when the air conditioning is turned on?
A bad thermostat can cause overheating in a Nissan Frontier when the air conditioning is turned on. A bad compressor can also cause this.
Where is the high compressor air condition hose?
The high pressure hose is between the compressor and orfice tube
How do you disconnect the air condition?
Typically there is a plug into the compressor with two wires. They activate the compressor. Just unplug it.
Jeep air condition compressor kicks on and off when off?
Compressor will normally run when in defrost mode.

The A/C compressor is driven by a belt. Follow the routing of the belt and you will find the compressor.
When your auto air condition is on the compressor comes on and then cutsoff very often why is this happening?
Bad A/C compressor clutch. Bad A/C compressor clutch.
What would cause your 2006 ford escape air conditioning to stop working?
it might be the air condition gas or most probably the air condition compressor
How do you troubleshoot home air condition compressor?
check starting capacitors. Check voltage supply with a voltmenter from outlet to compressor.
Is air condition discharge hot to the touch?
Yes, the discharge line from the compressor can be hot.Yes, the discharge line from the compressor can be hot.
Will the ac compressor run with no freon on a 1996 Chevy cavalier?
no it has a safeguard to prevent overheating the compressor
What kind of air is in an air compressor?
An air compressor sucks in and compresses air from the atmosphere. Whatever contaminants present in the air at the air intake of the compressor will be present in the air which is discharged from the compressor, with the possible exception of particulates which are filtered by the intake air filter. It is possible that carbon monoxide and other engine exhaust emissions, or ambient gases, or polutants can be in the atmosphere near the compressor intake. These invisible gases mix with the "air" and are compressed and discharged from the compressor. This is one reason why it is not safe to breath the air from a compressor unless the compressor is labeled that it is rated and approved as a breathing air source. Even then, the compressor must be in proper working condition and be operated by a qualified person. Breathing air from a compressor that is not rated and approved for breating air applications CAN KILL YOU.
