The flame sensor is a safety-critical component that uses ionization\/rectification to detect a live burner flame during each heating cycle. When the burner ignites, the flame produces a small electrical signal that the sensor rod transmits to the control board, confirming safe combustion. If the board does not receive this signal within a few seconds, it shuts off the gas valve as a safety precaution. A dirty, cracked, or failed sensor is one of the most common causes of a furnace that fires up briefly and then locks out — typically within 5–8 seconds of ignition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48GS400192 | 90-degree rod configuration | Includes mounting bracket | Factory-matched signal tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a genuine Carrier OEM sensor. OEM sensors are manufactured to exact rod geometry and insulator specifications, ensuring accurate microamp readings.
