The Goodman 20162903 Primary Limit Switch is a genuine OEM safety control rated for a 150°F cutout temperature, built for the WGFM28070V4BXAB gas furnace and compatible Goodman/Amana models. Mounted on the heat exchanger housing, this normally-closed thermal switch opens the circuit and shuts down the burners if the furnace overheats — protecting the heat exchanger and preventing a dangerous condition. A failed or nuisance-tripping limit switch causes short cycling or a no-heat condition.
OEM vs. Generic: Genuine Goodman limit switches are calibrated to the exact factory trip point and use the correct mounting bracket and terminal spacing. Generic replacements may trip early or late, leading to nuisance shutdowns or inadequate protection. For a safety-critical control, OEM is the reliable choice.
Install difficulty: Easy — disconnect power, unplug the two spade terminals, remove two mounting screws, and swap. No calibration required. Always cut power at the breaker before servicing.
