The igniter is the first active component in your furnace's ignition sequence — on a call for heat, the control board energizes the igniter to glow-red hot, igniting the gas burner. When this part fails, the burner never lights and the control board issues a lockout fault, leaving you with zero heat. Common symptoms include a hard lockout after 3 ignition attempts, an igniter that glows but goes out before gas lights, or a visibly cracked or broken element discovered on inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120V AC | Silicon nitride element | Includes mounting bracket and wiring harness | Factory-matched resistance and warm-up time for Carrier PG8MEA048090ABJA ignition sequence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM igniters are manufactured to Carrier's exact voltage ramp and resistance tolerances, ensuring proper warm-up timing with the control board.
