Default 2000 Dakota a/c cuts out

HELP!! My A/C works great for about 20 minutes and then shuts off. If I turn of the switch and wait 10 - 15 minutes, it turns back on and runs great for another 15 - 20 minutes.

When it runs it is ice cold.

Mechanic told me it's the compressor thermal shut off switch???

Any info would be appreciated.


Anthony

I'm not the best for AC stuff but a low or high charge could always make it act up. Also you could always try to replace that switch. Check www.autozone.com for prices.
