OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor 48GS400168 for Model PY3PEA060090NA

This OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly (part number 48GS400168) is the factory-specified replacement for Carrier model PY3PEA060090NA packaged heating units. The ignitor initiates combustion by generating the high-voltage spark that lights the burner on each call for heat. When this component fails, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with a unit that runs through a startup sequence but produces no heat. Repeated lockout faults on your thermostat or control board display are the most common sign of ignitor failure.

  • OEM Part Number: 48GS400168 | Manufacturer description: Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly | Replaces PSE-CE15 | Factory-authorized Carrier part
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Part, manufactured to exact electrical and ceramic specifications. Generic igniters often vary in electrode gap, tip geometry, and wire harness length — risking misfire, poor flame establishment, and premature control board faults.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Turn off gas supply and 24V control power before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers. Note electrode orientation and wire routing before disconnecting. Handle ceramic tip carefully — never touch with bare hands, as skin oils cause premature failure.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Fits Carrier model PY3PEA060090NA packaged heating and cooling units. Verify your existing part number on the unit's data plate or wiring diagram before ordering. Not sure it fits? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you buy — contact us today and get back to heat fast.
