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 switch high-voltage power to the compressor and condenser fan motor in the ICP Tempstar Heil RGS244HRFA0AAAA. The contactor's electromagnetic coil is energized by the 24V control circuit; when the thermostat calls for cooling, the coil pulls the contacts closed and sends line voltage to the outdoor unit. Three OEM options cover the RGS-series builds: 1171554 (2-pole, 30A, 24V coil), 1172449 (3-pole, 40A, 24V coil), and 1183142 (3-pole, 60A, 24V coil). Pitted, welded, or burned contacts are one of the most common HVAC failures — they cause the outdoor unit to chatter, hum without starting, or run continuously. Genuine OEM contacts restore clean, reliable switching at the correct amperage rating.

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.
