Goodman B1497204 Fusible Link (144°C)

The B1497204 is the genuine OEM 144°C fusible link thermal fuse for the Goodman GUE100-5 gas furnace. This one-time safety device is wired in series with the furnace control circuit and permanently opens if internal temperatures exceed its 144°C (291°F) rating — protecting the furnace and home from overheat conditions caused by blocked airflow, a failed blower, or a dirty filter. A blown fusible link presents as a completely dead furnace with no ignition sequence.

Specifications

Part number: B1497204
Type: Fusible link / thermal cutoff
Trip temperature: 144°C (291°F)
Function: One-time overheat safety cutoff
Compatibility: Goodman GUE100-5 gas furnace
Condition: New OEM replacement

OEM vs. Generic

The OEM B1497204 is rated to the exact 144°C trip point specified for the GUE100-5, so it protects without nuisance tripping and meets the furnace's safety certification. Using an incorrect temperature rating defeats the safety function — always match the OEM spec. Note: a tripped link usually indicates an underlying airflow or blower problem that should be diagnosed and corrected.

Installation

Difficulty: Easy (2/5). With power off, unplug the two spade terminals and mount the new link in the same location. Inexpensive and quick — but always investigate why the original link opened before returning the furnace to service.
