OEM Carrier Flame Sensor LH680013 for Model PG9MAA036080ABKA

This is the genuine OEM Carrier flame sensor (part number LH680013), factory-specified for the Carrier PG9MAA036080ABKA gas furnace. The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — is a safety-critical component that detects whether a burner flame is actually present after ignition. It passes a small electrical current through the flame; if the control board doesn't receive a confirming signal within seconds, it shuts off the gas valve as a safety measure. A failed or carbon-coated flame sensor is one of the most common reasons a gas furnace starts, runs briefly, then shuts down — typically within 5 to 8 seconds of ignition — and enters a lockout or continuous retry loop.

  • Specs: Straight flame rod design | OEM part number LH680013 | Also supersedes LH33WZ514 and LH33WZ516 | Factory-matched geometry and rod length for precise flame signal detection
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit is manufactured to Carrier's exact tolerances for rod composition, insulator material, and connector fit. Aftermarket sensors may generate weaker microamp signals, causing nuisance shutdowns or premature re-coating — especially in older furnaces with marginal control boards.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Turn off power and gas before beginning. Locate the sensor in the burner assembly, remove one mounting screw, disconnect the wire lead, and reverse to install. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers. Light sanding of the rod with fine steel wool can temporarily restore a coated sensor, but replacement is the reliable long-term fix.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PG9MAA036080ABKA gas furnace. Cross-references include LH33WZ514, LH33WZ516, CARLH680013, FSX01001, and FLS680013. Always verify your unit's existing part number or model data plate before ordering. Our fitment team is available to confirm compatibility before you buy — no guesswork, no returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Flame Sensor fit my Carrier PG9MAA036080ABKA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM flame sensor for the Carrier PG9MAA036080ABKA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the flame sensor on my Carrier PG9MAA036080ABKA?
Difficulty: Easy (10–15 min)
Step 1: Turn off power/gas. Step 2: Open furnace panel. Step 3: Locate flame sensor rod near burners. Step 4: Remove single mounting screw. Step 5: Clean rod with 400-grit sandpaper until shiny (or replace). Step 6: Reinstall and tighten. Most common furnace repair — saves $150–$300 vs technician.
My furnace lights then shuts off after a few seconds. Why?
Furnace lights then shuts off after 3–10 seconds = dirty flame sensor in 90% of cases. The sensor can’t detect flame through oxidation buildup. Fix: clean with 400-grit sandpaper (free, 15 min). If cleaning doesn’t work, replace the sensor.
Is this flame sensor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier flame sensor?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
