The Goodman 20197312 Air Pressure Switch is a genuine OEM safety control for the Goodman GMH950905DXAC gas furnace. Rated at -.37 in. WC (normally open), it senses negative pressure created by the inducer/draft blower and confirms that combustion venting is clear before the control board allows ignition. If the vent is blocked or the inducer fails, the switch stays open and safely prevents the burners from firing.
Pressure switches are calibrated to an exact set point. The OEM 20197312 is factory-matched to the -.37" WC trip value this furnace requires; installing a generic switch with a different rating causes chronic ignition lockouts, short cycling, or — worse — bypassed safety limits. For a life-safety combustion control, always use the correctly rated OEM part.
Easy (2/5). Roughly 15–25 minutes. Cut power, photograph the wiring, transfer the two spade terminals and the sensing hose to the new switch, then mount it. Confirm the hose is fully seated and free of condensate before restarting — a kinked or wet hose is the most common cause of a false open.
