OEM Carrier Control Transformer 40VA 120V/24V for Model GB1AAV036065ADJA
This OEM replacement control transformer (part number HT01BC116) is the factory-specified unit for the Carrier GB1AAV036065ADJA gas furnace. The transformer steps down 120V line voltage to 24V AC to power the entire control circuit — including the thermostat, gas valve, contactor coils, and the integrated furnace control board. When the transformer fails, nothing in the low-voltage control circuit responds: the thermostat goes dark, the furnace won't call for heat, and the system appears completely dead despite power being present at the unit.

Specs: 40VA rated | 120V primary / 24V secondary | Factory OEM part number HT01BC116 | Matches original mounting footprint and terminal configuration for drop-in replacement
-
OEM vs Generic: The OEM Carrier transformer is wound to exact VA and voltage tolerances required by the GB1AAV036065ADJA control board. Undersized or off-tolerance generic transformers can sag under full control-circuit load, causing erratic ignition sequences, nuisance lockouts, or premature control board failure.

Install difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off power at the breaker and disconnect the furnace service switch before starting. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (to confirm 0V before touching wiring). Photograph all low-voltage wiring connections before removal. Swap wire-for-wire and restore power to verify 24V output before closing the cabinet.
-
Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.
Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Carrier GB1AAV036065ADJA gas furnace. Confirm your existing transformer's VA rating and primary/secondary voltages on the unit data plate or wiring diagram before ordering. Need help verifying fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists confirm compatibility before you buy — no guesswork.
