The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — is a critical safety component that uses ionization\/rectification technology to verify that a burner flame is present after ignition. When the burner fires, the flame generates a small DC microamp signal through the rod; the control board reads this signal to confirm safe combustion. If the sensor is coated with oxidation or has failed entirely, the board cannot confirm flame presence and will shut off the gas valve within 5–8 seconds as a safety lockout — leaving you with a furnace that lights briefly then goes cold. Replacing this sensor with the correct OEM part restores reliable flame verification and eliminates nuisance lockouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90° flame rod configuration | Includes mounting bracket | Approx. dimensions 4.9\" × 1.75\" × 1.6\" | OEM Part # 48GS400192 | Carrier factory-matched signal tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM sensors are precision-matched to the control board's microamp detection range.
