The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — is a safety-critical component that detects the presence of a live burner flame during the ignition sequence. It passes a small DC current through the burner flame to confirm combustion. When the sensor fails or becomes coated with oxidation, the control board receives no flame signal, triggers a safety lockout, and shuts off the gas valve — typically within 5 to 8 seconds of ignition. The result: a furnace or packaged unit that lights briefly, then goes out, cycling repeatedly without ever reaching setpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM part #50HJ401431 | Stainless steel sensing probe with alumina-coated rod | Dimensions approx. 2.9\" W × 4\" D × 1.75\" H | Weighs approx. 0.09 lbs | Compatible with standard 24V AC furnace control circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This factory OEM sensor is calibrated to Carrier's exact microamp detection threshold. Generic sensors can exhibit looser tolerances, causing nuisance lockouts or, worse, delayed shutoff — creating a safety risk on a gas appliance. Always use OEM on gas combustion components.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall difficulty: 2\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e — Turn off gas supply and 120V power before servicing. Tools needed: 1\/4\" hex driver or nut driver, fine steel wool or light emery cloth (to clean rod if reusing), and a multimeter to verify microamp output.
