The correct replacement for Tempstar model T2A336GKD200 — 1-Pole 30A 24V Coil with Shunt | Ships Today 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.

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 Tempstar 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.

Overview

This is a genuine OEM single-pole definite-purpose contactor (part number 1172472) for the Tempstar T2A336GKD200 air conditioning condensing unit. The contactor is the electromechanical switch that powers the compressor and condenser fan motor whenever the thermostat calls for cooling. A 24-volt control signal energizes the coil, pulling in the armature so the 30-amp contacts close and feed line voltage to the compressor. This contactor is rated 30 amps with a 24V coil and includes a factory shunt for proper single-pole switching. Burned, pitted, or welded contacts are a leading cause of no-cool service calls — producing chattering, hard starts, intermittent cooling, or a compressor that fails to start.

Compatibility

A direct OEM replacement for the Tempstar T2A336GKD200 condensing unit. Contactor 1172472 is shared across many ICP-family outdoor units, including matching Heil, Comfortmaker, and Tempstar 1.5–4 ton split-system condensers that use a single-pole 24V/30A contactor. Always confirm the existing contactor's pole count, coil voltage, and amp rating before installing.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and main breaker, then verify zero voltage at the contactor terminals with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the condenser service panel to expose the electrical compartment.
Document — Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting.
Remove — Label and disconnect the line, load, and 24V coil leads, then unscrew the old contactor from its bracket.
Install — Mount the new contactor, reconnect each wire per your photo, and confirm the shunt and coil leads are seated.
Test — Restore power, call for cooling, and verify the contactor pulls in cleanly with the compressor and fan running.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Chattering, buzzing, or humming from the outdoor unit on a cooling call.
Compressor and condenser fan won't start though the thermostat is calling.
Burned, pitted, melted, or welded contacts on inspection.
