Hi,
Yes they can leak and will need a recharge....just check first that the leak is very small or can be fixed before spending the money to recharge it...with the low cost of window A/C units you can easily get a repair bill for more then a new one would cost...
Here is a tip about trouble shooting your air conditioner...

The switch cycling is probably the contactor-ley that with the help of the capactor will close the contacts and provide power to the compressor.
But finding the diagrams/schematics for a window air conditioner is hard so I hope you kept yours.
A general note, normally if the compressor is gone in a window unit, it is normally cheaper to replace than to repair.
Thanks for the post, friend!
I understand that the compressor continues to run after your Frigidaire air conditioner has turned off. From that information it sounds like there could be a possible issue within your control panel or relay. I would recommend a reset on the appliance, to perform a reset unplug the power cord you will see a test button, push that button and you will hear a click. You would then press the reset button you will hear a click again signifying that the appliance has been reset. Then plug your air conditioner back in. If you continue to have an issue with your compressor I would seek assistance from a professional. Hope this is helpful. -Matt
