My AC clicks but the compressor does not turn on. What is wrong?

Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting usually means a worn contactor. The contactor is the relay that sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted or worn, it clicks but cannot establish a solid electrical connection. Other symptoms: visible pitting or burn marks on the contactor face, AC works intermittently, or buzzing from the contactor.

Overview

This genuine OEM single-pole contactor (part number 1050699) is rated 25 amps with a 24-volt coil and serves as the main switching relay for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil YL042GA1 condensing unit. When the thermostat calls for cooling, the 24V coil pulls the contacts closed to energize the compressor and condenser fan motor. Over time the silver contacts pit, arc, and weld; a failing contactor causes hard starting, chattering, a unit that won't shut off, or a compressor that won't start at all. Replacing a worn contactor is one of the most common and inexpensive condenser-unit repairs.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP contactor?
