Genuine OEM Goodman B1370188 is a 170°F primary high-limit switch built for the AMS80704BNA gas furnace and compatible Goodman/Amana models. Mounted on the heat-exchanger or burner bulkhead, the primary limit is the furnace's main overheat safety: it interrupts the gas valve if supply-air temperature climbs too high due to a dirty filter, blocked ducts, or blower failure, preventing heat-exchanger damage.

When a primary limit fails open or trips repeatedly, the furnace will lock out or short-cycle. Replacing it with the correct OEM switch restores reliable high-temperature protection and normal heating.

  • Part number: B1370188
  • Trip temperature: 170°F (auto-reset)
  • Reset type: Automatic
  • Function: Primary high-limit / heat-exchanger overheat cutout
  • Fits: Goodman AMS80704BNA and compatible furnaces

OEM vs. Generic: The genuine Goodman limit is set to the exact 170°F trip point and matches the original probe length, bracket, and terminals. A generic switch with the wrong temperature or geometry can nuisance-trip or fail to protect the heat exchanger — risking cracks and unsafe operation. For the furnace's primary safety limit, always choose OEM.

Install difficulty: Moderate — accessible to an experienced DIYer or technician. Cut power to the furnace, record the wire positions, remove the two mounting screws, move the terminals to the new switch, and reinstall. Confirm proper airflow and verify the switch is closed at room temperature after installing.

Common symptoms: unusual noises, intermittent operation, complete failure, or visible damage. Visit our diagnostic hub for symptom-based troubleshooting.
Is this limit switch compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Goodman limit switch?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
