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 2-pole, 40-amp contactor (PN 1280342) is the factory-specified high-voltage relay for the ICP RYB060GAA condensing unit. Its 24V coil energizes on a call for cooling, closing both poles to feed line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. The 40A rating gives this contactor the headroom needed for the locked-rotor inrush of a 5-ton-class compressor. A failed contactor commonly shows up as a unit that hums but won't start (open coil), contacts that pit and weld shut (compressor never stops), or audible chatter that hammers the compressor on every cycle.

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.
