On every call for heat, the control board energizes this igniter to reach glowing temperatures — typically 1,800–2,200°F — before opening the gas valve to light the burner. When the igniter fails, the furnace will attempt ignition, fail to establish flame, and lock out after one to three tries. You may hear the inducer run and the system attempt to cycle, but no heat is produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM Part # LH33ZG001 | 120V AC input | Silicon nitride element | Factory-matched geometry and wiring harness connector for drop-in fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the genuine Carrier factory part, ensuring correct element resistance, watt density, and connector fit.
