Compressor Clicking, withe a full charge? 850 1994

So I have read alot of posts and everyone says that if your compressor is clicking it means you are low on freeon.

So here is my question: if your system has to much freeon would the compressor also click on and off?

Thanks in advance

If its fully charged, hmm jump the compressor wires. Look there youll see a wire go into a sensor on the compressor and off to the compressor, basically eliminate that sensor, usually in humid places that sensor disrupts the compressor from working with your controls on your a/c panel.

I wanted to add this as well, when my car is standing and I open the hood the compressor runs the whole time and does not click off at all. It's only when I drive it clicks off and on about every minute or so. Is this normal?
