The flame sensor is a critical safety component — it uses ionization\/rectification technology to detect the presence of a burner flame during each heating cycle. When the sensor detects a valid flame signal, the furnace continues to operate normally. When it fails — typically due to oxidation or carbon buildup on the sensing rod — the control board cannot confirm ignition and will shut off the gas valve within 5–8 seconds, triggering a safety lockout. The result: a furnace that lights briefly, then shuts off, repeating in a frustrating short-cycle pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90° mounting angle | Flame rod with bracket assembly | OEM part number 48GS400192 | Factory-matched ionization signal tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a genuine Carrier OEM part, manufactured to exact factory specifications.
