The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — detects the presence of a burner flame by passing a small microamp current through the flame to ground. When the sensor is dirty, corroded, or failed, the control board cannot confirm ignition and will shut off the gas valve as a safety measure, typically within 5 to 8 seconds of burner light-up. The result: repeated short-cycle lockouts and a system that refuses to heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM part #50HJ401431 | Stainless steel sensing rod | Alumina-coated probe | Dimensions approx. 2.9\" W × 4\" D × 1.75\" H | Weighs 0.09 lbs | Compatible with standard 24V AC control circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a genuine OEM Carrier part manufactured to exact factory tolerances. Generic sensors may vary in rod length, mounting angle, or coating quality — all of which affect microamp output and trigger false lockouts even when new.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall Difficulty: 2\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e — Turn off gas and power before starting. Tools needed: 1\/4\" hex or nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and optionally a multimeter to verify microamp reading (should read 2–6 µA). Disconnect the single wire connector, remove the mounting screw, swap the sensor, and reconnect. Always verify flame signal with the board on first test fire.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects.
