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 OEM 2-pole, 30 amp contactor with a 24V coil (OEM #1178074) is the main switching contactor for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS120HFAA0AAA unit. The 24-volt control coil pulls in the contacts to deliver line power to the compressor and condenser fan motor on a cooling call, then drops them out when the call ends. Contactors are a high-wear part — the contacts arc on every cycle and eventually pit, burn, or weld, leading to a unit that won't start, won't shut off, or chatters. This direct-fit 30A / 2-pole replacement restores reliable, full-load switching.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor/indoor disconnect and verify zero voltage across all contactor terminals with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the electrical-access service panel.
Document — Photograph every line, load, and coil wire before disconnecting.
Remove — Transfer wires one at a time or label them, unscrew the old contactor, and lift it out.
Install — Mount the new contactor and reconnect each wire to its matching terminal per your photo.
Test — Restore power and start a cooling call; confirm the contactor pulls in cleanly and the compressor and fan energize.

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 ICP 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 ICP 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.
