You likely have a bad part that costs about $50. It's electrical and doesn't have a Freon connection. It's a wire connector and a probe. Maybe one screw holding it in place.
It's not a thor or ford part, its peculiar to the ac system which is mostly not ford and absolutely nothing to do with Thor.
Someone will know the name of the part. It's an easy thing that measures temp on the chingaso or whatzit,
maybe it's called the condenser coil temp sensor. Probably part # a46-3122-030.
Possibly Evans ac. stuff. It tells the compressor when to turn off.
Ours has done what yours does, since ours was new.
Its too easy for me to just turn it off for 10 minutes and then back on.
If we ever need any other under hood repair we'll have it fixed then.
It causes no appreciable damage.
My mom's 1971(?) Automatic, ac, power steering, Vega hatchback did the same.
I think it used to be called
Icing up
Back in the long ago.
Go to an ac pro, NOT an rv place, to double check me. Your description of symptoms is sparse and a pro can do the repair with a guarantee.
Do not use that Freon kit under any circumstance. That's for whoopdies, not for valuable vehicles.
Your extended warranty might cover this repair. It's worth asking.
