OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly 48GS400168 for Model PY3PPA030060NB

This is the factory OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly (part number 48GS400168), the direct replacement for the Carrier PY3PPA030060NB packaged gas unit. The ignitor initiates combustion by generating a high-voltage spark at the burner. When it fails or degrades, the unit will attempt ignition, fail to establish flame, and enter a safety lockout — leaving you with no heat. Replacing the ignitor assembly is one of the most common and cost-effective furnace repairs available.

  • OEM Part Number: 48GS400168 | Manufacturer description: Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly | Factory-authorized replacement for Carrier 48GS gas pack units
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM assembly is manufactured to exact Carrier factory specifications for electrode gap, ceramic insulation rating, and high-voltage cable integrity — ensuring reliable spark generation and long service life. Generic igniters may have inconsistent electrode gaps or inferior ceramic insulators that crack under thermal cycling.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, flathead screwdriver, needle-nose pliers. Photograph wiring harness before disconnecting. Handle ceramic components carefully to avoid cracking.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PY3PPA030060NB packaged rooftop/gas unit. Verify your existing part number on the unit's data plate or wiring diagram before ordering. Not sure if this fits? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you purchase — no guesswork, no returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Igniter fit my Carrier PY3PPA030060NB?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM igniter for the Carrier PY3PPA030060NB. 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 PY3PPA030060NB?
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?
