OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Igniter Assembly 48GS400168 for Model PY1PPB036060AAAA

This OEM spark electrode igniter assembly (part number 48GS400168) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY1PPB036060AAAA packaged gas/electric unit. The igniter initiates combustion by generating a high-voltage spark across the two electrode rods to light the burner on every heat call. When the igniter assembly fails or cracks, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with a no-heat call and a fault code on the board.

• Specs: 2-rod spark electrode design | High-voltage ignitor assembly | Factory OEM fit for Carrier 48GS gas pack series | Lightweight at ~0.07 lbs
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM part built to exact factory electrode gap and ceramic insulator specifications. Aftermarket igniters often have inconsistent spark gap tolerances, leading to intermittent ignition failures and shortened service life.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power and shut off gas before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter to verify continuity. Photograph wire routing before disconnecting the ignition cable lead.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.
