OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor 48GS400168 for Model PY3PNA030060AA

This is the genuine OEM Carrier spark electrode ignitor assembly (part# 48GS400168), factory-specified for the Carrier PY3PNA030060AA packaged unit. The spark electrode ignitor initiates combustion by generating a high-voltage spark across the electrode gap to light the burner. When this component fails or degrades, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and trigger a hard lockout — leaving you with a system that powers on but produces no heat. Common failure symptoms include repeated ignition attempts followed by a fault code, a visible crack or carbon tracking on the electrode tip, or a corroded or broken ignition lead.

  • Part Number: 48GS400168 | OEM Carrier Ignitor/Electrode Assembly | Replaces PSE-CE15 | Compatible with Carrier packaged gas units
  • OEM vs Generic: This factory-original part is manufactured to exact Carrier gap spacing and ceramic insulator specifications. Generic igniters frequently use substandard ceramics that crack under thermal cycling, causing repeat service calls and voiding equipment warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off gas supply and 24V control power before beginning. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers. Inspect the ignition wire and boot for cracks before reinstalling — part number 50HJ403024 is the companion ignition wire if replacement is needed. Always confirm electrode gap per unit service manual before firing.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PY3PNA030060AA packaged gas/electric unit. This ignitor assembly is used across many Carrier packaged rooftop and ground-mount units — verify your model and serial number data plate before ordering. Our parts specialists are available to confirm fitment at no charge. Order today for same-day shipping!
