The Goodman 0130F00010S Flame Sensor is a genuine OEM flame-rectification rod for the Amana/Goodman AMEH800805CXAB gas furnace. The sensor confirms that a flame is present after ignition by passing a small microamp current through the flame to the control board. When it fails or oxidizes, the board can't prove flame and shuts the gas valve — causing the classic symptom of a burner that lights, then drops out after a few seconds (short-cycling on ignition).
Rod length, alloy, and bracket angle determine how the sensor sits in the flame and the microamp signal it generates. The genuine OEM 0130F00010S guarantees the correct flame position and reliable signal, whereas generic rods can produce weak or erratic readings and repeat lockouts. OEM is the reliable fix.
Easy — DIY-friendly, ~10 minutes. Power off the furnace, remove the single mounting screw and the spade wire, install the new sensor in the same orientation, and reconnect. Tip: if you're replacing due to short-cycling, a genuine sensor plus a clean burner usually restores steady operation. Avoid touching the rod with bare fingers.
