OEM Carrier Hot Surface Igniter LH33ZG001 for Model PG8MAA024045AEJA
This is the factory OEM hot surface igniter (part number LH33ZG001) for the Carrier PG8MAA024045AEJA packaged gas unit. During a call for heat, the control board energizes the igniter, which glows to ignition temperature and lights the gas burner. When this component fails — due to cracking, contamination, or element burnout — the furnace will attempt ignition, fail to light, and enter a lockout fault after 2–3 retries, resulting in no heat. Replacing the igniter is one of the most common and cost-effective furnace repairs available.
