If it's running without the key turned on it's going to run your battery down.

This sounds like a disaster waiting to happen, if it doesn't work get it fixed properly! Dont guess and do it yourself!

Btw check your pressures, you might have a big leak causing too little pressure which cuts out the compressor. If you sont have enough pressure the oil wont move around in the system which will damage it!
