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 definite-purpose contactor switches high-voltage power to the compressor and condenser fan motor on the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS240HRFA0AAAA system. When the 24V control circuit energizes the coil, an electromagnet pulls the contacts closed and delivers line voltage to the outdoor unit. Three OEM ratings are offered to match your equipment: part 1171554 (2-pole 30A 24V), 1172449 (3-pole 40A 24V) and 1183142 (3-pole 60A 24V). Contactors wear out from millions of switching cycles — pitted or welded contacts, a buzzing or chattering coil, and an outdoor unit that won't start (or won't stop) are the telltale symptoms. A fresh OEM contactor restores clean, reliable switching and protects the compressor from voltage drop and arcing damage.
