OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil for Model CA13NA018BNGAEAA

This is the factory OEM replacement contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Carrier CA13NA018BNGAEAA split-system air conditioner. The contactor is a high-voltage relay that receives a low-voltage (24V) signal from the thermostat and switches line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When a contactor fails, the most common symptoms include an air conditioner that won't turn on at all, a unit that hums but the compressor never starts, or visible pitting and burning on the contactor's contact points. Replacing a worn contactor is one of the most common and cost-effective AC repairs available.

  • Specs: 2-pole configuration | 24V AC coil voltage | Factory-rated amperage for 1.5-ton R-22 split-system | OEM part number HN51KC024 | Direct drop-in replacement — no modifications required
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor is manufactured to Carrier's exact electrical specifications, ensuring proper coil pull-in voltage and contact rating. Generic contactors may use lower-grade contact materials that pit and oxidize faster, leading to repeat failures within one or two seasons.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage with a multimeter before beginning. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old contactor to ensure correct reinstallation.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Orders placed by 3 PM local time ship same business day from our stocked warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Carrier CA13NA018BNGAEAA 1.5-ton Comfort Series split-system condenser. Always verify the coil voltage and pole configuration on your existing contactor's label before ordering. Our HVAC parts specialists are available to confirm fitment — reach out before you order if you have any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Carrier CA13NA018BNGAEAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Carrier CA13NA018BNGAEAA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the contactor on my Carrier CA13NA018BNGAEAA?
Difficulty: Medium (30–45 min)
Step 1: Turn off breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph ALL wiring on the contactor. Step 4: Label each wire with tape. Step 5: Disconnect wires and remove old contactor. Step 6: Mount new contactor, reconnect wires matching your photo. Step 7: Restore power and test.
My AC clicks but the compressor won’t turn on. What’s wrong?
Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting = worn contactor. The contactor sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted, it clicks but can’t make solid contact. Look for: visible pitting/burn marks on the contactor face, intermittent operation, or buzzing.
Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier contactor?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
