What amp contactor do I need for my Goodman system?

The correct replacement for Goodman model GSC130604BA — CONT3P025024VS is this exact part. It is the factory-specified replacement with exact OEM specifications. Using a part with different specifications can cause equipment damage or void your warranty. You can verify this by checking the data plate on your Goodman equipment which lists the model number GSC130604BA — CONT3P025024VS.

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.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Goodman parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne systems since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across multiple brand labels with different model numbers. To verify cross-compatibility, check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or contact info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number for confirmation.

The Goodman CONT3P025024VS Contactor is the genuine OEM 3-pole, 25-amp, 24-volt definite-purpose contactor for the GSC130604BA condensing unit and compatible Goodman/Amana air conditioners. The contactor is the electrical switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor when the thermostat calls for cooling. Pitted contacts, a chattering coil, or a buzzing relay are classic signs of a failing contactor and the most common cause of a no-cool outdoor unit.

OEM vs. Generic

This genuine Goodman OEM contactor matches the original coil pull-in voltage, contact rating, and terminal layout for a true plug-and-play swap. Generic 25A contactors may have different mounting footprints or lug orientations, forcing rewiring. The OEM part guarantees correct fit and rated load handling.

Installation Difficulty

Moderate — Disconnect all power, photograph and transfer the wiring one terminal at a time, then mount the new contactor. Manageable for a careful DIYer; hire an HVAC pro if unsure about high-voltage wiring.
