OEM Carrier 40VA Control Transformer for Model GA1AAD060100AAJA
This OEM control circuit transformer (part# HT01BC116) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier GA1AAD060100AAJA packaged gas/electric unit. The transformer steps down 120V line voltage to 24V to power the entire low-voltage control circuit — including the thermostat, contactor coil, gas valve, and control board. When it fails, nothing in the system responds: the thermostat goes dark, the unit won't call for heat or cooling, and you may find a blown 3A fuse on the control board as a secondary symptom.

Specs: 40VA rated | 120V primary / 24V secondary | Class 2 transformer | OEM part number HT01BC116 | Factory-matched impedance and thermal protection
-
OEM vs Generic: The OEM HT01BC116 transformer is wound to exact factory VA and voltage specifications. Undersized or off-tolerance aftermarket units can overheat under normal load, blow fuses repeatedly, or deliver insufficient voltage to reliably open gas valves and contactors — shortening downstream component life.
-
Install difficulty: 2/5 — Disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage before touching any wiring. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, wire stripper, multimeter. Photograph all low-voltage wiring before disconnecting. Confirm the new transformer secondary reads 24–28V AC before buttoning up the unit.
-
Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Orders placed before cutoff ship same business day from our warehouse.
Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Carrier GA1AAD060100AAJA 5-ton packaged unit. Cross-reference part number HT01BC116 against your unit's wiring diagram label before ordering to confirm correct VA rating. Not sure it fits?
