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 a genuine OEM single-pole definite-purpose contactor (part #1172472) for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil WJA324000K000B1 condensing unit. Rated for 30 amps with a 24-volt control coil and an integrated shunt, the contactor is the electrical switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor when the thermostat calls for cooling. The 24V coil closes a set of heavy-duty contacts that pass line voltage to the outdoor unit. Because those contacts arc under high current on every cycle, they are among the most common HVAC failure points. Pitted, burned, or welded contacts cause hard starts, chattering, or a unit that runs nonstop. Swapping a worn contactor is a low-cost repair that restores reliable cycling and protects the compressor from damage.

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.
