How to override the compressor relay on my 99 honda civic?

My compressor keeps kicking on and off every few seconds and it is full of refrigerant. I want to override the relay on my 99 honda civic so that the compressor will not kick off. Thanks!|||It is either not full or the pressure switch on the reciever drier is bad. Possibly some other mechanical malfunction such as restriction on low side cutting off compressor.





DO NOT BYPASS or you will be replacing compressor due to failure from lack opf lubrication.





Put a set of A/C guages on it at idle pressure should be steady somewhere around 200 psi high (red) side and 40 psi low side.





If low side drops down to 25 or less and compressor cuts off AND high side is low add refrigerant.





If high side is normal OR high and Low is LOW then their is a restriction in system. Compressor is cutting off as a safety feature to insure it gets lube, lubrication come INTO compressor from low side. if their is a restriction or pressure is low then compressor cuts off till pressure comes back up then cuts on again and repeats as nec.





REPEAT DO NOT BYPASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


CHECK SYSTEM TO FIND OUT WHY IT'S CUTTING OFF.








EQUIVALENT TO A FUSE KEEPS BLOWING HOW DO I BYPASS THE FUSE, CONSIDER THE COMPRESSOR CUTTING OFF AS A FUSE.|||if it goes off and on frequently, you have a problem, either a bad pressure sensor, or a leak, regardless of how much refridgerant is in it.It operates by the pressure, not amount of refrigerant|||Sounds overcharged or a blockage problem. don't bypass unless you want to buy a compressor then fix the original problem. put some gauges in it
