This is a contactor:
View attachment 3474032
It handles the power to the compressor unit. The low voltage lines from the thermostat switch hook up to it, and is used to turn the compressor on and off.
Check out these two vids:
This dorks video shows the actual switch in action.
Usually when the contactor goes bad, it fails to magnetically pull down the switch.
Please be careful when messing
around with electricity;-)
You should use a multimeter to fully test the contactor, which is best, and should be done either way. Make sure there is power being supplied(240v and 24v). You can quickly test the contactor by using a screw driver and manually pushing down the switch like that dork did in the video. If it now works and everything else is good, replace the contactor. 10-20 dollar part, available at any electrical distributor. :-)

Thanks man. Is it a problem tho that the blades dont spin freely? Did i somehow fry a brand new motor in seconds?

If the motor won't spin w/power off, it's the bearings, or fried windings rubbing.
I would make sure you have proper voltage to the leads before installing a replacement motor.
Also, make sure the new one matches the original specs, (voltage,rpm's).

Turns out my dumbass put the blades too high on the shaft of the new motor so they were catching. Corrected that but still not getting any action. I did check the new motor last night before installing and its literally the exact same one. So im starting to think the motor isnt the problem but at least i know theres a new one in there ill keep tje old for a backup. So i guess ill look into the contactor like @Aeroknow suggested.

Also my girlfriend says the thermostat has always been shifty( we live in her moms old house). Could this cause an issue?

No, it won't cause buzzing or humming outside.
I would check to make sure you have proper voltage at the motor leads, will it make noise if you turn the unit on with the motor disconnected? (exposed wires not touching anything)
My luck would be that I just burnt up a new motor with the fan hanging up.

Well there comes a time and place. My girlfriend whom you have all herd about and if not then clearly you don't know inda, has joined riu. Yes maybe a foul on my part.. Literally the first thing she saw from me was "have you ever had a girl blow coke off your dick?"
Either way I'm not going to say hey do or don't post pics of her face with jizz on them or tell her exactly how to stomp turds, but be aware she will demean you. She can spell and is vicious. Unfortunately she isn't a white supremacist so that takes a lot of fun out of it but I'm sure we can figure a way to say hello.
