Alright im back home and its still hot in texas! I checked the thermostat wires. Connections were solid but had a good bit of wire exposed outside of the nuts due to insulation rotating away. Probably from sun exposure. I rewired them. At that point i was still getting the super loud buzzing from the contactor. I removed, disassembled, and cleaned it. I reinstalled it and the buzzing is gone. I also tested the contactor with a multimeter even though it is almost new. The thermostat is engaging the contactor as it should. Even tested it to make sure i was getting voltage on the back side after it engaged.
No sound of compressor or fan motor trying to come on. Fan still spins freely.
Im learning as i go but i dont see how they could not come on unless the capacitor is bad. With power to the unit, i have 120 on everly leg of the capacitor. It shows zero sign of failure.
