OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor 48VL400002 for Model PY3GNA036090NA

This OEM spark electrode ignitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY3GNA036090NA packaged unit. The ignitor generates a high-voltage spark at the burner to initiate combustion each time a heat call is made. When this component fails, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with no heat. Common failure symptoms include the burner never lighting, repeated ignition attempts followed by a fault code, or a visibly cracked or corroded electrode tip.

  • Specs: Spark electrode ignitor | L-shaped bracket | Ignitor length to L: 1 3/8" | Total ignitor length: 2 3/4" | Ground length: 4" total | Country of origin: USA | OEM part number 48VL400002 (superseded by 50HJ403022)
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM electrodes are machined to exact gap tolerances required for reliable arc formation. Generic electrodes with inconsistent gap spacing can cause intermittent ignition failures, nuisance lockouts, and premature control board wear.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off gas supply and 24V power before beginning. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers, and a flashlight. Disconnect the ignition wire lead, remove the two mounting screws, swap the electrode, and re-gap if needed before reconnecting. Always verify ignition wire integrity before reassembly.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against manufacturing defects. Ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Factory-matched for Carrier model PY3GNA036090NA packaged gas/electric unit. Note that OEM part 48VL400002 has been superseded by Carrier part number 50HJ403022 — both are genuine Carrier OEM assemblies with identical fit and function. Verify your unit's model and serial tag before ordering. Our fitment team is available to confirm compatibility before you buy — order now and get same-day shipping on in-stock parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Igniter fit my Carrier PY3GNA036090NA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM igniter for the Carrier PY3GNA036090NA. 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 PY3GNA036090NA?
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?
