On the remote , switch the machine on and then press the temp button to the temp that you want
remember the lower the setting the longer the machine will run and the more often it will cycle
recommended setting for maximum power saving is 25 Degrees and i have been running an ac at that for 15 years
I have had to replace it with a inverter system and have found that the system removes all the humidity from the room and so a setting of 27 degrees is more pleasant
I have noticed that although inverters run the compressor all the time (it is the load that varies) there have been times when the outside temperature fell below the set temperature and the compressor actually stopped until the room exceeded the set temperature.
so turn off all the settings not needed and simply switch on the machine and set the temp desired by the remote.

Remove the thermostat and disconnect the r and y connection. If the A/C continues to run ya got a short in the wiring somewhere. If it shuts down then your tstat is hooped.

I suggest you call a qualified service repair man. There are as many ways to connect a heat pump as there are people doing them. Nothing is standard industry wide that has anything to do directly with color codes, so it would be meaningless to go into them here. The terminals may be adapted to standard but but the thermostat manufacturer may not follow any terminal designations.
However you may just have an extra wire touching one of the terminals inside the thermostat. You can check this by removing the cover. Look where the wires attach to the terminal screws on the thermostat. Sometimes a new service person cuts the insulation back too far here or in the outdoor or indoor units and a "whisker" from one wire can touch the other terminals. A whisker is not the normal case try and move it away from another terminal if its is touching there. However, you may have jumpers in place especially if you have W, W1, W2... at any of the 3 sections, meaning the outdoor, indoor and thermostat.
If you can tell me the terminal designations R,Y, W1, W2, E, G, O, (B)... at the thermostat and the color thereon each, then at the indoor unit terminals or wire designations and the color there, then
at the outdoor unit and the color thereon each terminal or wire designation there. I might be able to help if
the above whisker check you don't find anything.:

it shouldnt run for that long if it is sized right for the room in the first place. Does it not come back on after it runs for 30 to 40 mins?
sounds as though it is not the correct size for the room to me
SOURCE: not cooling down to desired temp. Temp set @ 75;
Try cleaning the coils this may help, Nu brite is good if you have it.
