OEM Carrier Spark Electrode Ignitor Assembly (48GS400168) for Model PY3PPA060130AB

This is the factory OEM spark electrode ignitor assembly (part #48GS400168) for the Carrier PY3PPA060130AB packaged gas/electric unit. The dual-rod electrode assembly generates the high-voltage spark that ignites the burner on each heating call. When it fails or cracks, the control board will attempt ignition, detect no flame, and lock out the unit — leaving you with a blinking fault code and no heat. Replacing this assembly with the correct OEM part restores reliable ignition and prevents nuisance lockouts caused by weak or misdirected spark.

• Part Number: 48GS400168 | OEM Carrier Spark Electrode / Ignitor Assembly | 2-Rod configuration | Factory-matched electrode gap and ceramic insulator spec
• OEM vs Generic: OEM electrode assemblies maintain precise rod alignment and ceramic insulator integrity. Generic substitutes often have inconsistent rod spacing, which causes weak spark, intermittent ignition, and repeat lockout faults that waste service calls.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off gas and power at the disconnect before beginning. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers. Disconnect the high-voltage ignitor wire and ground lead, remove the two mounting screws, and swap the assembly. Confirm electrode gap matches OEM spec before powering up.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In-stock orders ship same business day from our warehouse.
