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 definite-purpose contactor (PN 1178074) is the primary switching relay for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RHS150S0AA0AAAA heat pump. Its 24-volt coil is energized by the thermostat call, pulling in the contacts to deliver line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. Contactors are among the most common HVAC failure points: the silver contacts pit, corrode, and weld from the arcing that occurs every cycle. Pitted contacts cause hard starts, chattering, and intermittent operation; welded contacts keep the compressor running even when the thermostat is satisfied. A clean, properly rated contactor restores reliable starting and protects the compressor from voltage drop.

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.
