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 fits the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS101HSAB0AAAA and is available in 30-amp (part 1178074) and 40-amp (part 1178211) ratings, both with a 24V control coil. The contactor is the electrically operated switch that powers the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the thermostat calls for cooling, the 24V coil pulls the contacts closed and sends line voltage to the load; when the call ends, it drops out. Pitted, welded, or chattering contacts are one of the most common no-cool failures and can leave a system running or stuck off.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

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.
