Overview

This OEM single-pole definite purpose contactor (Tempstar part number 1172472) is the electrically-controlled switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan in your Tempstar T4A330GKD300 air conditioning unit. Rated for 30 amps with a 24-volt control coil and an integrated shunt, it closes when the thermostat calls for cooling and opens when the call ends. Contactors are one of the most common failure points in a condensing unit because the contacts arc and pit every time they cycle. A failing contactor shows up as a buzzing or chattering noise, pitted or welded contacts that keep the compressor running, or a unit that simply won't start because the contacts no longer make solid contact.

Compatibility

Engineered as a direct OEM replacement for the Tempstar T4A330GKD300 condensing unit. The same 1172472 contactor is shared across many ICP-family condensers (Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker) — verify your existing contactor is a 1-pole, 30A, 24V unit before ordering.

Installation Guide

  1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and breaker, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter across the line terminals.
  2. Access — Remove the condenser unit's electrical access panel.
  3. Document — Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting anything.
  4. Remove — Note the line, load, and 24V coil wires, disconnect them, then unscrew the old contactor from the bracket.
  5. Install — Mount the new contactor and reconnect each wire exactly per your photo.
  6. Test — Restore power and confirm the contactor pulls in cleanly on a cooling call with no buzzing.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Tempstar T4A330GKD300 — 1-Pole 30A 24V w/Shunt | Ships Today?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Tempstar T4A330GKD300 — 1-Pole 30A 24V w/Shunt | Ships Today. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the contactor on my Tempstar T4A330GKD300 — 1-Pole 30A 24V w/Shunt | Ships Today?
Difficulty: Medium (30–45 min)
Step 1: Turn off breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph ALL wiring on the contactor. Step 4: Label each wire with tape. Step 5: Disconnect wires and remove old contactor. Step 6: Mount new contactor, reconnect wires matching your photo. Step 7: Restore power and test.
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 Tempstar 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 Tempstar 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.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
