The thermal overload on a Payne AC compressor is typically located within the compressor itself, often integrated into the motor winding or as a separate thermal protection device. It is designed to protect the compressor from overheating by interrupting the electrical supply if the temperature exceeds a safe limit. In some models, it may be accessible through the electrical terminal cover. Always refer to the specific model's manual for precise location and troubleshooting information.
The thermal overload switch on a Payne AC compressor is typically located on the compressor itself, often near the motor or the terminal cover. It may be integrated into the compressor's wiring or mounted directly on the compressor body. To access it, you usually need to remove the electrical cover or panel. Always ensure the unit is powered off before attempting to locate or service the switch.
It is possibly due to th compressor disconnecting itself due to overheating ("thermal overload"). It could also be a faulty thermostat.

It could be any one of the following: 1. The fan motor is overheating and is shutting down on overload, which will cause the compressor to shut down via the high pressure switch. 2. The compressor is getting too hot and is shutting down via the thermal overload switch. You need to determine if the fan and the compressor both come on at the outdoor unit. If you are getting cold air inside the house, the compressor is probably running. It generally takes longer than 1 minute for the fan to go out on overload unless the bearings are shot, then the fan motor could seize up and shut the compressor down on overload. You should have this checked by an HVAC tech.
