OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly 48GS400168 for Model PY2PNB048115AB

This is the genuine OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly (part #48GS400168) factory-specified for the Carrier PY2PNB048115AB packaged gas unit. The 2-rod electrode assembly generates the high-voltage spark that ignites the burner during each heating cycle. When this part fails, the control board attempts ignition, receives no confirmation of flame establishment, and triggers a lockout fault — leaving you with a system that attempts to start but delivers no heat. You may observe repeated ignition attempts followed by a fault code, or a complete no-heat condition from the first call.

  • Specs: 2-rod spark electrode ignitor assembly | OEM part #48GS400168 | Lightweight 0.07 lb | Compact form factor (approx. 3.8" × 1.4" × 4.9") | Direct OEM drop-in replacement
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier factory-authorized ignitor assembly. OEM electrodes maintain exact rod spacing and ceramic insulator integrity critical for reliable spark generation. Aftermarket units frequently suffer from gap drift and inferior insulator materials, leading to intermittent ignition failures and repeat service calls.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off gas supply and disconnect power before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a flashlight. Photograph the existing wiring harness connector orientation before removal. Reconnect leads to matching terminals and verify the electrode rods are positioned correctly over the burner port before restoring power.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Engineered as the direct OEM replacement for Carrier PY2PNB048115AB packaged gas heating/cooling units. Always verify your unit's data plate part number against #48GS400168 before ordering. Need fitment confirmation? Our HVAC parts specialists are standing by — we verify compatibility before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Igniter fit my Carrier PY2PNB048115AB?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM igniter for the Carrier PY2PNB048115AB. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the igniter on my Carrier PY2PNB048115AB?
Difficulty: Medium (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power and gas. Step 2: Open furnace panel. Step 3: Locate igniter near burners. Step 4: Disconnect two-wire plug. Step 5: Remove mounting screw. Step 6: Install new igniter — do NOT touch element with fingers. Step 7: Reconnect, close panel, restore power/gas.
My furnace won’t ignite. What part is bad?
Furnace won’t ignite after the draft inducer runs = failed igniter. The hot surface igniter should glow bright orange within 60 seconds. No glow = cracked/burned out. Weak glow = degrading. Average lifespan: 3–7 years. Replacement: $15–$40 DIY.
Is this igniter compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier igniter?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
