I have an issue with my AC and am wondering how to debug it. The AC light will turn off after about 3 seconds (sometimes). The AC function does also turn off as well, it is not just the indicator light. If I keep pushing the button every time it turns off, it will eventually stay on (sometimes). But after several minutes (maybe as much as 15-20), it will turn off (sometimes). Occasionally it works perfectly.

At first, it starting happening after normal operation for months and it was very persistent so I thought, maybe I have a coolant leak. But it is so inconsistent, I am thinking it may be a sensor.

An experts out there have suggestions for how to debug this?

Thanks!
