The Goodman 0130F00038 Auxiliary Limit Switch is a genuine OEM safety control designed for the AMS81005CXAD furnace and other compatible Goodman and Amana gas furnace models. Identified by its light-blue housing, this normally-closed high-limit switch monitors heat-exchanger and blower-compartment temperatures, opening the control circuit to shut down the burners if the unit overheats. It is a critical safety device — running the furnace without a functioning auxiliary limit risks nuisance lockouts, cracked heat exchangers, and unsafe operation.

Specifications

Part number: 0130F00038

OEM vs. Generic

This is the genuine OEM Goodman part, calibrated to the exact trip temperature specified for your furnace. Aftermarket limit switches are available at lower cost but often carry looser temperature tolerances that can cause premature cycling or, worse, fail to trip. For a safety-critical component we recommend the OEM switch for guaranteed calibration and fit.

Installation Difficulty

Easy (1/5). A basic repair for most technicians: disconnect power, remove the two mounting screws, transfer the wire leads to the new switch, and reinstall. Always confirm power is off at the disconnect and verify correct trip operation after replacement. If you are not comfortable working around a gas furnace, contact a licensed HVAC professional.
