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

These OEM definite-purpose contactors fit the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS213HTAA0AAAA: a 2-pole 30-amp unit (part 1171554) and a 3-pole 40-amp unit (part 1172449), both with a 24-volt control coil. A contactor is the high-current switch that delivers line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor whenever the thermostat energizes the 24V coil. Over thousands of cycles the contacts arc, pit, and carbon up, leading to a system that hums but won't start, buzzes loudly, chatters, or fails to shut off because the contacts have welded closed. Installing a fresh OEM contactor restores clean, full-voltage switching to the outdoor unit.

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?

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.
