The Goodman 20162903 Primary Limit Switch is a genuine OEM high-limit safety control with a 150°F trip rating, engineered for the AMV91155DXBB gas furnace and other compatible Goodman and Amana models. Mounted on the heat-exchanger bulkhead, it monitors supply-air temperature and opens the circuit to shut down the burners if the furnace overheats — protecting the heat exchanger, blower, and your home.
A limit switch that has weakened or opened permanently will cause no-heat calls, short cycling, or repeated lockouts. Replacing it with the correct 150°F OEM part restores accurate overheat protection and normal furnace operation.
OEM vs. Generic: The genuine Goodman 20162903 is calibrated to open at exactly 150°F and is dimensioned to seat flush against the factory mounting location for accurate sensing. Generic limit switches with different trip points or mounting depths can trip early, trip late, or misread plenum temperature — compromising a core safety function.
Install Difficulty: Easy to Moderate (DIY-friendly, 15–20 minutes). Cut power to the furnace, remove the two mounting screws, transfer the spade wire connectors to the new switch, and reinstall in the same orientation. No calibration required. Confirm the switch sits flat against the metal for correct temperature sensing.
