    Check the thermostat and make sure the fan switch is on auto, not fan. Check the G terminal at the air handler to make sure it does not have 24 v to the B or C terminal. The air handler also has a timer that should let the blower run 90 seconds after the thermostat shuts the compressor off. It could be sticking.

    The contactor was a likely suspect, but not always the problem.
