OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Igniter 48GS400168 for Model PY2PNB048130AA

This OEM spark electrode igniter assembly is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY2PNB048130AA packaged gas unit. The igniter generates the high-voltage spark that lights the burner at the start of every heat cycle. When it fails, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with a no-heat call and a blinking fault code. Replacing the igniter with the correct OEM assembly is the fastest and most reliable path back to full heat.

  • Specs: Dual-rod spark electrode igniter assembly | OEM Part# 48GS400168 | Factory Authorized Parts | Direct drop-in replacement — no modifications required
  • OEM vs Generic: This is the genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Part. Generic igniters often use lower-grade ceramic insulators and off-spec rod geometry, leading to weak spark, misfire, and premature failure. OEM ensures the precise electrode gap and mounting dimensions your control board expects.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Turn off gas supply and disconnect power before beginning. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers. Photograph wiring harness and electrode orientation before removal. Ceramic insulators are fragile — handle by the bracket only.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PY2PNB048130AA packaged gas/electric unit. Verify part number 48GS400168 against your unit's data plate or existing igniter label before ordering. Our parts specialists are available to confirm fitment — reach out before you order if you have any questions.
