The compressors are supposed to cycle to keep the evaporator from freezing up. Don't give up on those connections at the compressor just yet. One of mine came loose and I replaced it, worked fine. A few months later the compressor decided not to turn on one day. I got under there and jiggled the connections, still no engagement. Luckily I didn't give up and I went ahead and replaced the other connection with a fresh one connected to fresh copper wire. Fixed it and haven't had any problems with it since.
