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 is the electrical switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor in your ICP RHH072H0AA0AAAA heat pump. When the thermostat calls, the 24-volt control circuit pulls in the contactor coil, closing the line-voltage contacts and powering the outdoor unit. Offered in 30-amp (OEM 1178074) and 40-amp (OEM 1178211) ratings, both with a 24V coil, this contactor is built to handle the high inrush current of compressor startup. Pitted, burned, or chattering contacts are among the most common causes of a unit that won't start, hums without engaging, or cools only intermittently.

Access — Remove the service/control panel on the condensing unit.
Document — Photograph every wire and terminal position before disconnecting anything.
Remove — Label and disconnect the line, load, and 24V coil leads, then unscrew the old contactor from the base.
Install — Mount the new contactor, reconnect each wire to its matching terminal per your photo, and confirm the coil leads land on the 24V terminals.
Test — Restore power, call for cooling, and verify the contactor pulls in cleanly and the compressor and fan start.

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.
