Probably your low pressure switch is bad as i'm assuming that is the one you jumped. And yes freon cans will get cold when adding to a system and if you don't do it right you won't get enough in or to much as it sounds as if you aren't using gauges so you have no idea of how much you have in. It also sounds like your vacuum is leaking or the switch is bad due to it won't stay in one position.
