a/c compresser still getting 12 volts when vehicle is off.

I came outside one morning and my 92 was dead,after charging the battery and starting vehicle i noticed after a while the compresser clutch would pop in and out.I just had the a/c serviced not to long ago.When i probed the compresser plug it still had 12 volts with everything off.The control pod was replaced,that was the reason for service and everything else checked out o.k. Thanks

It sounds like they caused a short. Using your
voltmeter or trouble light trace the voltage back to
where it’s coming from. Then ‘unshort’ that short.
