My compressor doesn’t seem to cycle on and off but the clutch engages and disengages regularly keeping the temp steady. I would think if the fluid was always flowing you would get a frozen expansion valve. Maybe an HVAC expert will chime in here.

When I say the compressor cycling on and off, it really means the clutch engaging and disengaging.... that I never hear with my car once AC is turned on. It blows cold air and temp can be modulate, but apparently the compressor is always running.
