The Goodman B1497204 Fusible Link is a genuine OEM thermal safety cutoff rated at 144°C (291°F) for the GUX120-5 gas furnace. This one-time thermal link opens the control circuit if the furnace overheats — protecting against runaway temperatures caused by restricted airflow, a failed blower, or a plugged filter. When the link blows, the furnace shuts down and must have the link replaced to restore heat.
The OEM link is calibrated to the exact 144°C trip point Goodman engineered for this cabinet. A generic link with the wrong rating can nuisance-trip or, worse, fail to open in time — a safety device is the one place you should never substitute the temperature spec. Always match 144°C exactly.
Easy (2/5). Disconnect power, locate the link in the limit/safety circuit, unclip the two terminals, and snap in the replacement. About 15 minutes with basic tools. Important: a blown link means the furnace overheated — inspect airflow, the filter, and the blower before returning the unit to service.
