Genuine Goodman 0130F00038 Auxiliary Limit Switch (Light Blue)

The Goodman 0130F00038 is a factory-original auxiliary high-limit switch, identified by its light-blue housing, built as a direct-fit replacement for the AMVC81005CXBD gas furnace. This normally-closed thermal switch protects the furnace by opening the control circuit if internal temperatures exceed its trip point — guarding against blocked airflow, a failed blower, or a dirty filter. A tripped or failed limit is a common cause of a furnace that heats briefly then shuts down, or won't fire at all.

Specifications

OEM Part Number: 0130F00038
Type: Auxiliary high-limit / thermal cut-out switch
Color code: Light blue
Action: Normally closed, opens on over-temperature
Fits: AMVC81005CXBD and compatible Goodman/Amana furnaces
Reset: Automatic (bimetal)

OEM vs. Generic

The color coding on Goodman limits corresponds to a specific factory trip temperature — the OEM light-blue 0130F00038 guarantees the correct cutout rating for this cabinet. A generic switch with the wrong trip point either nuisance-trips in normal operation or fails to protect the heat exchanger. On a safety device, matching the exact OEM rating is essential.

Install Difficulty

Easy — 1/5. Two spade terminals and one or two mounting screws. Kill power, note the wire positions, swap the switch, and reconnect. Usually a 5–10 minute job with a nut driver.
