Hi,
You need to check the overload relay, there is a plastic box on the side of the compressor with several wiring going into it. The overload relay fails often causing the compressor to try to restart every 3-5 minutes. If you remove this box on the side of the compressor and shake it, if it will rattle it's bad and needs to be replaced. Otherwise you just have a bad compressor, but most of the time it's the overload relay.
If after replacing the overload relay and you still have the same issue, that means your compressor itself will need to be ordered and replaced.
Hope it helps.
Thank you for using FixYa.
