OEM Carrier Flame Sensor LH680013 for Model PG9MAA060120AAKA

This is the OEM factory-specified flame sensor for the Carrier PG9MAA060120AAKA gas furnace. The flame sensor (also called a flame rod) is a safety-critical component that detects the presence of a lit burner flame by passing a small DC microamp current through the flame to ground. When the control board fails to detect this signal — typically due to a corroded, cracked, or carbon-fouled sensor rod — the furnace will light briefly and then shut down within 5 to 8 seconds, triggering repeated lockout attempts with no heat delivered.

• Part Number: LH680013 (OEM Carrier) | Also replaces LH33WZ516, LH33WZ514, CARLH680013 | Straight flame rod design | Factory-matched signal tolerance for PG9MAA060120AAKA control board
• OEM vs Generic: OEM Carrier sensors are manufactured to exact rod length, bracket angle, and alloy specification. Generic aftermarket sensors can produce weaker microamp signals, causing nuisance shutdowns or failure to satisfy the control board's flame-proving threshold — even when physically installed correctly.
• Install Difficulty: 1/5 — One of the simplest furnace repairs available. Disconnect power and gas before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" hex driver or flat-head screwdriver. Remove single mounting screw, unplug the wire connector, swap the sensor, and restore power. No soldering or calibration required.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse.
