The transformer converts 120V line voltage to the 24V signal voltage required to power the control board, thermostat, and all low-voltage safety controls. When it fails, the entire control circuit goes dead — your thermostat goes blank, the unit won't respond to any call for heating or cooling, and you may measure 0V at the secondary terminals with full line voltage present at the primary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40VA rating | 120V primary \/ 24V secondary | OEM part number HT01BD236 | Factory-matched impedance and thermal protection for Carrier packaged units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This OEM transformer is wound to Carrier's exact VA rating and insulation class.
