The flame sensor—also called a flame rod—uses micro-amperage electrical conductivity through the burner flame to prove ignition to the control board. When the sensor is coated with oxidation or carbon buildup, or the rod itself has failed, the control board can no longer verify that a flame is present and will cut off gas flow as a safety measure. The result is a frustrating cycle: the unit lights, runs for 5 to 8 seconds, then shuts off on lockout—leaving you with no heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e LH33WZ005 | Factory Authorized Parts (FAP) | Carrier OEM | Includes 64.5\" lead wire harness for direct plug-in replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e The OEM rod is manufactured to Carrier's exact conductivity and geometry tolerances. Aftermarket sensors frequently have slightly different rod angles or inferior alloy coatings, causing nuisance lockouts or shortened service life in high-cycle applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall Difficulty: 2\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e — Shut off gas and power at the disconnect before servicing. Locate the flame sensor rod adjacent to the burner assembly. Disconnect the lead wire, remove the single mounting screw, and swap in the new sensor. Tools needed: 1\/4\" or 5\/16\" nut driver, needle-nose pliers. Verify microamp signal (1.5–4 µA typical) with a multimeter after installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-year OEM factory warranty.
