OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly for Model PY3GNA042060AB

This is the factory-specified OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly for the Carrier PY3GNA042060AB packaged gas unit. The ignitor generates the high-voltage spark that lights the burners during each heating cycle. When this component fails, the control board will attempt ignition, find no confirmed flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with a no-heat call and a blinking fault code. A failed ignitor is one of the most common causes of heating lockout on Carrier gas-pack equipment.

  • OEM Part Numbers: 48VL400002 (superseded by 50HJ403022) | 48GS400168 | Factory Authorized Parts — exact factory specification, direct drop-in replacement with original wiring harness and bracket geometry
  • Part Type & Specs: Spark electrode ignitor assembly | 2-rod electrode configuration | 24V control circuit compatible | Designed specifically for Carrier 48GS/PY3GNA-series packaged gas units
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM ignitor assemblies use precisely gapped electrodes matched to the factory ignition module. Generic spark electrodes often suffer from inconsistent gap tolerances and inferior ceramic insulators, leading to misfires, nuisance lockouts, and premature failure — especially in outdoor packaged unit environments exposed to moisture and debris.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off gas supply and disconnect power before starting. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a phone or camera to photograph existing wiring before removal. Reconnect harness connectors fully until they click. Restore power and verify ignition on first call for heat.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against manufacturing defects. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PY3GNA042060AB packaged gas/electric unit. Cross-references OEM part numbers 48VL400002 and 48GS400168. Verify your unit's data plate model number before ordering. Our team is available to confirm fitment — contact us before you buy if you have any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Igniter fit my Carrier PY3GNA042060AB?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM igniter for the Carrier PY3GNA042060AB. 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 PY3GNA042060AB?
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?
