A/C Compressor Cycles on/off, no cold air
as the title read, my compressor, in my 01 Cherokee, cycles on and off every few second yet it blows warm air.
I know this is a sign of a leak/low refrigerant. I bought a recharge it and it full yet still no cold air.
could a small leak still cause this?
any ideas would be helpful

Sounds like its either on defrost or still a little low on freon. Or its leaking out just as fast as its going in.

What are the pressures in the system when the compressor is running? (You need a full gauge set to see the high and low side readings, not just the cheap low pressure dial built into the recharge bottles sold at places like Autozone.)
Here's a system diagnosis chart that may help:
