OEM Carrier Control Transformer 40VA 120V/24V for Model C48A403552
This OEM replacement control transformer (part number HT01BD236) is the factory-specified unit for the Carrier C48A403552 packaged system. The transformer steps down line voltage from 120V to the 24V signal voltage required to power the control board, thermostat, contactor coil, and all low-voltage safety circuits. When this component fails, the entire control circuit goes dead — the thermostat goes blank, the system will not respond to any calls for heating or cooling, and no low-voltage components will function.
