OEM Payne 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil for Model PA3GNAA24000AA
This is the factory-specified OEM replacement contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Payne PA3GNAA24000AA split-system air conditioner. The contactor is the high-voltage relay that receives a 24V signal from your thermostat and closes the circuit to power the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails, the most common symptoms are an air conditioner that won't turn on at all, intermittent cooling failures, or a unit that runs continuously without cycling off due to welded contacts.
