OEM Carrier Hot Surface Igniter Replacement Kit 331930-751 for Model PG8JAA024045ABJA
The Carrier 331930-751 Hot Surface Igniter Kit is the factory-specified OEM replacement for Carrier PG8JAA024045ABJA gas furnaces. The hot surface igniter is a critical component in the furnace ignition sequence — it heats to over 1,800°F within seconds to ignite the gas burner. When the igniter fails or cracks, the furnace control board detects no ignition and triggers a safety lockout, leaving you with no heat. Symptoms include the furnace attempting to start, failing after 1–3 tries, and locking out entirely.
