Check with both cabin temperature dials turned down to minimum.
Evaporator temperature should drop to around 5°C when the compressor is working then the compressor will turn off to prevent freezing then turn back on again at around 12°C on the evaporator temperature sensor to continue cooling.
It will then cycle and repeat as above.

Also check the cabin temperature sensor reading in Vida which should eventually reach approximately whatever temperature has been selected on the dials.
