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.

Overview

This OEM single-pole contactor (ICP part #1050699) is rated 25 amps with a 24-volt control coil and switches line power to the compressor and condenser fan in your ICP / Tempstar / Heil YL042GB1 heat pump. When the thermostat calls, the 24V coil pulls the contacts closed to energize the outdoor unit. Pitted, welded, or chattering contacts are one of the most common no-cooling/no-heat failures: the unit hums but won't start, runs intermittently, or the contacts stick closed and the compressor never shuts off. This direct-fit 1-pole, 25A contactor restores clean, reliable switching.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP contactor?
