Question
Just had hose replaced and system recharged.  Compressor works good for 5
min til engine hot.  Then once it cycles off it will not come back on.  Works well
while on.  Switched out the relays in engine compartment and this did not solve
problem.  Is there another relay that could cause this problem?  Help!  HOT in
Raleigh

Answer
You need to go back to whoever fitted the hose,it seems like the gas is low.It may be that there is air in the system also.The compressor will shut off if the gas is low as there is a sensor for this to prevent damage to the compressor as the gas also contains the lubricating oil.
