An AC compressor will click on and off when low in refrigerant. So in spite of all the new work you had done, you may still have a leak or are low on 134a. If the work was done at a shop, take it back for them to check what is going on.

Thanks I appreciate it but the system was checked and checked again which is why I'm stumped, I thought there might be a relay that I'm not aware of or if it could be the climate control panel
