Overview

This is a genuine OEM single-pole definite-purpose contactor (Part No. 1050699) for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil YJ042G1 heat pump. The contactor is an electromagnetic switch that takes a low-voltage 24V signal from the thermostat and closes its line-voltage contacts to energize the compressor and condenser fan motor. Rated at 25 amps with a 24-volt coil, it carries every cooling and heating call to the outdoor unit. Over time the contacts pit, burn, and arc, or the coil burns open. When that happens you'll see the outdoor unit fail to start, hear a chatter or buzz, find contacts welded closed so the unit never shuts off, or spot burnt and melted terminals.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and breaker, then verify zero voltage at the contactor line terminals with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the condenser service/electrical panel.
Document — Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting anything.
Remove — Label and disconnect the line, load, and 24V coil wires, then unscrew the old contactor from its bracket.
Install — Mount the new contactor and reconnect each wire exactly per your photo (L1/L2 line in, T1/T2 to compressor and fan, 24V to the coil terminals).
Test — Restore power, place a cooling/heating call, and confirm the contactor pulls in cleanly and the compressor and fan energize.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP contactor?
