OEM Carrier Gas Furnace Hot Surface Igniter for PG95SAS60080CBAA

The hot surface igniter is what actually lights your Carrier PG95SAS60080CBAA furnace. On a call for heat the control board sends voltage to this element, which glows red-hot within a few seconds; gas then flows across it and ignites. When the igniter cracks or its element fatigues with age, you'll hear the inducer spin up and the gas valve open but get no flame — the furnace attempts ignition, retries, then drops into lockout. The tell-tale signs are cold air from the registers, repeated clicking or restart attempts, and no heat, almost always on the coldest night when the furnace cycles most often. Specs: this hot surface igniter is matched to Carrier's ignition timing. Traditional silicon carbide elements measure roughly 40–90 ohms cold and are brittle; modern silicon nitride elements resist thermal shock and last far longer. In either case the resistance and bracket geometry must match the original so the tip hits full ignition temperature inside the board's timed window. An open (infinite ohms) reading confirms a cracked, failed element. OEM matters because an igniter's resistance and exact element position determine whether gas lights cleanly. A generic igniter with the wrong resistance simply won't glow hot enough, producing delayed ignition, nuisance lockouts, and rough light-offs that punish the heat exchanger over time. Install difficulty: 2 of 5. Tools: 1/4" nut driver and a multimeter for a resistance check. Critical: handle the element only by its ceramic base — fingerprints on the element create hot spots that crack it. #1 safety warning: shut off the gas supply and cut power at the furnace switch or breaker before opening the burner compartment.

Compatibility

This part is compatible with Carrier model PG95SAS60080CBAA. Always verify the part number against your unit's data plate before ordering.

Why Choose OEM?

OEM parts are manufactured to the exact factory specifications for your unit. Generic aftermarket alternatives may fit physically but often use lower-rated components that reduce equipment life and void manufacturer warranties. When the cost difference between OEM and generic is $10-30, the OEM part is always the smarter investment on a system worth $5,000-$15,000.

Shipping & Returns

Same-day shipping on orders before 3 PM CST. Standard delivery 2-5 business days, express options available at checkout. 30-day hassle-free returns on uninstalled parts — free return shipping included. 1-year OEM factory warranty coverage.
