OEM Carrier Hot Surface Igniter for Gas Furnace PG9MAA024060ADKA

The hot surface igniter is the spark of life for your Carrier PG9MAA024060ADKA furnace. Each time the thermostat calls for heat, the control board sends 120V to the igniter; it glows white-hot in seconds and lights the gas the instant the valve opens. As an igniter ages or develops micro-cracks, you'll typically see a furnace that runs the inducer and blower but never produces heat, often locking out after several failed ignition tries. Other tell-tale symptoms are short-cycling, cold air from the registers, and a gas valve that clicks open with no flame following. This OEM igniter uses a silicon nitride element built for the high cycle demands of a 95% AFUE condensing furnace. Silicon nitride resists thermal shock and physical breakage far better than the older silicon carbide style, with a cold resistance generally in the 40-70 ohm range — measure across the terminals with a multimeter, and an OL or infinite reading confirms the element has failed. Generic igniters tend to be brittle silicon carbide that pulls higher current, overheats beyond spec, and cracks from repeated thermal cycling, often dying within a single heating season. The OEM silicon nitride element is matched to the board's current and timing curve, giving you reliable ignition and a far longer service life. Install difficulty: 2 of 5. Tools: 1/4" nut driver and a multimeter. SAFETY: shut off the gas supply and cut power at the furnace switch before servicing. Touch the new igniter only by its ceramic base — fingerprints create hot spots that cause early failure. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse on orders placed before 3 PM CST.

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.
