This is the genuine OEM Carrier flame sensor assembly (part #LH33WZ005) factory-specified for the Carrier PY1PEA048120AFBA packaged heat pump unit. The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — monitors the burner flame by passing a small DC current through the ionized gas. When the control board detects that signal, it confirms safe ignition and allows the gas valve to stay open. A failed or carbon-coated sensor causes the board to cut gas within 5–8 seconds of ignition, sending the system into lockout. Repeated no-heat calls, error codes for flame failure, or a unit that lights briefly then shuts off are the classic signs this part needs replacement.
Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PY1PEA048120AFBA packaged unit. Cross-referenced to Factory Authorized Parts (FAP) and Totaline product lines under the same part number. Verify your existing sensor part number on the unit's wiring diagram or data plate before ordering. Need help confirming fitment?
