Someone told me if I don't use an exact brand. The computer is going to show that after the repair is done. Is this right?

Hi,
If you purchase a direct replacement compressor, it should be fine. However, there are different compressors based on the system and production dates.
I attached a pic below which provides the OEM part numbers based on need. If you purchase one, just make sure it replaces the part number indicated.
