Goodman 20162906 M4 Primary Limit Switch

The Goodman 20162906 is a genuine OEM M4 primary high-limit switch built for the AMH80803BNAA 80% AFUE gas furnace and compatible Goodman and Amana models. Mounted on the heat-exchanger bulkhead, this auto-reset thermal control monitors supply-plenum temperature and opens the gas-valve circuit if the furnace overheats — typically from restricted airflow, a dirty filter, or a failed blower. Once temperatures return to normal, the switch closes automatically and restores operation.

Type: M4 primary high-limit switch (auto reset)
Configuration: Normally closed, opens on temperature rise
Function: Heat-exchanger / plenum overheat protection
Fits: Goodman/Amana AMH80803BNAA and select 80% gas furnaces
OEM Part: 20162906

OEM vs. Generic: The primary limit is factory-calibrated to a specific cut-out temperature matched to this furnace's heat exchanger. The genuine Goodman M4 switch guarantees the correct trip point and mounting flange. Generic substitutes with mismatched setpoints risk premature heat-exchanger damage or nuisance lockouts.

Install difficulty: Easy (1/5). Remove two mounting screws, transfer the wire connectors, and reseat against the bulkhead. Disconnect power first and address any airflow restriction that caused the trip.
