OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor (48GS400168) for Model PY2PNB024040AB
This OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY2PNB024040AB packaged gas unit. The ignitor initiates combustion by generating a high-voltage spark at the burner assembly. When this component fails, the unit will attempt ignition, fail to light, and go into safety lockout — leaving you with no heat. Common symptoms include repeated ignition attempts with no flame, error codes indicating ignition failure, or a unit that clicks but never fires.
