Compressor Start Relay and Overload Kit
The clicking sound is the audible actuation of the bimetal overload protector. This occurs when the PTC thermistor fails to provide the necessary current to the compressor's start windings, or has cracked internally, causing the compressor to draw excessive current and trip the safety switch. Replacing this assembly restores the electrical path required for motor torque initialization.

Hard Start Kit / Capacitor
The run capacitor provides the phase shift necessary for the compressor motor to maintain rotation. If the capacitor's dielectric material has degraded, the motor may struggle to overcome head pressure, leading to a stall and subsequent tripping of the thermal overload (the 'click').

Electronic Control Board
In cases where clicking originates from the rear-center of the unit rather than the compressor base, the failure mode is typically a sticking or chattering relay on the main PCB. This prevents stable voltage from reaching the cooling system components, halting the thermodynamic cycle.
