OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor 48GS400168 for Model PY3PEA060130NB

This is the OEM factory-specified spark electrode ignitor (part# 48GS400168) for the Carrier PY3PEA060130NB packaged gas unit. The ignitor is responsible for initiating combustion each time your system calls for heat. When it fails, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the system — leaving you with a unit that powers on but delivers no heat. Common symptoms include repeated ignition attempts with no burner light-off, a steady no-heat fault code, or the system going into hard lockout after 2–3 ignition trials.

• Specs: Spark electrode ignitor assembly | OEM part# 48GS400168 | Replaces PSE-CE15 | Factory-matched geometry and electrode gap for reliable arc ignition
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM ignitor assembly, manufactured to exact factory tolerances. Generic electrodes frequently suffer from incorrect gap spacing and inferior ceramic insulators, leading to misfires, carbon tracking, and premature failure.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Turn off gas and 24V control power before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers. Disconnect ignition wire before removing the electrode. Handle ceramic insulator carefully — do not allow contact with oils from bare hands, as this can cause cracking under heat.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Orders ship same business day from our warehouse when placed before cutoff.
