Air Conditioner Contactor - How to check if it's bad

Do you think your air conditioner contactor might be bad? Wondering how you can check it? Is your air conditioner not turning on or not blowing cold air? In my other air conditioner fixing videos
I have gotten a similar comment quite a bit. It usually sounds something like this, "My AC does not work! I have already replaced my contactor and my thermostat but it still doesn't turn on! Any idea what it can be?" It seems like the contactor is one of the first things people go after, along with the thermostat. But most of the time those two are not at fault, they are simply not getting power. In this video I go over the contactor and how you can check it. Also, keep in mind that there is 240 volts going to the condenser unit. If you open up the electrical panel make sure you confirm that the power is off. Do any checking or repairs carefully otherwise you can get seriously hurt. Good luck and stay safe!
