Have you checked it's got enough gas pressure in the system?
It shuts down the feed to the clutch if there isn't.

Those self refill kits are a waste of time and money mate.
Get a real aircon firm to do it.
The system needs to be vaccumed out for about 30 mins to empty it of all the moisture and check for leaks then needs a measured amount of lubricant and a/c refrigerant putting back in. Get them to put uv dye in too so you can trace any leaks in the future.
