The B1497204 is a genuine OEM 144°C fusible link / thermal cutoff for the Goodman GUP100-5 gas furnace and compatible models. This one-time thermal fuse is a critical safety device: if furnace temperatures reach 144°C (291°F), the link melts open and de-energizes the furnace to prevent overheating and fire. A blown link is often a symptom of a restricted blower, dirty filter, or failing motor — inspect airflow before returning the unit to service.
The OEM Goodman link is calibrated to the exact 144°C rating engineered for the GUP100-5. Because this is a life-safety component, using a link with a different temperature rating or lead length can defeat the furnace's over-temp protection. We strongly recommend OEM.
Easy (2/5). Disconnect power, locate the link in the burner/heat-exchanger area, transfer the two leads, and mount in the original position. About 15 minutes — and always diagnose the root cause of the overheat before replacing.
