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 is the OEM 2-pole definite-purpose contactor for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS150HFBA0AAAA, available in 30-amp (part #1178074) and 40-amp (part #1178211) ratings, both with a 24-volt control coil. The contactor is the electrical switch that energizes the compressor and outdoor fan motor: when the thermostat calls for cooling, 24V is applied to the coil, the contacts pull in, and line voltage passes to the load. Contactors are a common wear item — the contacts pit, burn, and weld over thousands of cycles. A failing contactor causes hard starts, chattering, a unit that won't shut off, or no compressor operation at all.

Compatibility

Safety First — Disconnect power at the disconnect/breaker. Verify zero voltage across the contactor terminals with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the condenser electrical-panel cover.
Document — Photograph every wire and terminal position before disconnecting.
Remove — Transfer wires one at a time (or label them), unscrew the old contactor from its mounting feet, and remove it.
Install — Mount the new contactor, reconnect line, load, and 24V coil wires exactly per your photos.
Test — Restore power, call for cooling, and confirm the contactor pulls in cleanly and the compressor/fan energize.

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.
