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 definite-purpose contactor (part number 1178074) is the primary switching relay for the ICP RHS072H0XB0AAAA heat pump condensing unit. Rated for 30 amps with a 24-volt control coil, it energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor each time the thermostat calls for cooling or heating. When the coil receives 24V from the control board, the contactor pulls in and closes its line-voltage contacts to power the outdoor unit. A failing contactor is one of the most common causes of a no-cool/no-heat outdoor unit — symptoms include a unit that hums but won't start, chattering at the contactor, pitted or welded contacts, or a fan and compressor that fail to energize even with a valid 24V signal.

Compatibility

Engineered as the factory replacement for the ICP RHS072H0XB0AAAA heat pump. Because it is a standard 2-pole, 30A, 24V definite-purpose contactor, it also services many comparable Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Day & Night condensing units of similar capacity. Always confirm amperage and coil voltage against the contactor in your unit before installing.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and breaker, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter across the contactor line terminals.
Access — Remove the condensing unit's electrical access panel.
Document — Photograph every wire and terminal location before disconnecting anything.
Remove — Note line, load, and coil (24V) wiring, then transfer wires one at a time to the new contactor, or remove all wires and unscrew the old contactor from the bracket.
Install — Mount the new contactor, reconnect each wire to its matching terminal per your photos, and confirm the 24V coil leads are secure.
Test — Restore power, call for cooling, and verify the contactor pulls in cleanly and the compressor and fan energize.

My AC clicks but the compressor won’t turn on. What’s wrong?

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.
