Goodman 20162904 Primary Limit Temperature Control

The Goodman 20162904 is a genuine OEM primary high-limit temperature control engineered for the Goodman ACVC950714CXAB variable-speed, modulating gas furnace and compatible ACVC95-series models. This safety component continuously monitors heat-exchanger temperature and opens the gas valve circuit if the furnace overheats — protecting the heat exchanger, blower, and your home from unsafe operating conditions. A failed or out-of-spec limit control is one of the most common causes of short-cycling, no-heat lockouts, and nuisance trips.

OEM Part Number: 20162904
Brand: Goodman
Equipment: Gas furnace

OEM vs. Generic

This is the genuine OEM Goodman part, calibrated to the exact trip temperature your furnace's control board expects. Generic aftermarket limit switches are often available at a lower price point, but may use a different cut-out setpoint or mounting footprint that causes premature tripping or improper seating. For a safety-critical component, OEM is the recommended choice for reliable, code-compliant operation.

Installation Difficulty: Moderate

Rated moderate — typically a 20–30 minute repair for a handy DIYer. Requires shutting off power and gas, removing the burner-compartment panel, disconnecting two spade terminals, and unscrewing the mounting bracket. Always verify the model-specific wiring before installation. If you are not comfortable working around gas appliances and 120V wiring, we recommend a licensed HVAC technician.

Compatible with model ACVC950714CXAB. Backed by our fast shipping and hassle-free returns.
