The Goodman 20162904 Primary Limit Temperature Control is a genuine OEM high-limit switch engineered for the GME950403BXAB 96% AFUE gas furnace and compatible Goodman/Amana models. Mounted on the heat-exchanger/plenum, this primary limit continuously senses supply-air temperature and opens the gas/ignition circuit if the furnace overheats — the main over-temperature safety that protects the heat exchanger and blower assembly. A failed or drifting primary limit is a common cause of short-cycling, no-heat, and safety lockouts.

  • Type: Primary high-limit temperature control (auto reset)
  • Function: Normally closed; opens on over-temperature, recloses when cooled
  • Sensing: Bimetal disc calibrated to factory trip temperature
  • Terminals: Quick-connect spade terminals
  • Fits: Goodman GME950403BXAB and compatible furnaces

OEM vs. Generic: The OEM 20162904 is matched to the precise cut-out and cut-in temperatures this furnace was certified with. Generic limits with a different set point can nuisance-trip on normal cycles or, worse, fail to protect the heat exchanger. Because this is the furnace's primary safety limit, genuine Goodman OEM is strongly recommended.

Install difficulty: Easy–Moderate (2 of 5). Disconnect power, note wire positions, remove the two mounting screws, transfer the spade connectors, and secure the new limit against the plenum surface. A multimeter confirms continuity at room temperature. Verify airflow (filter, blower) isn't the root cause before replacing.

Common symptoms: unusual noises, intermittent operation, complete failure, or visible damage. Visit our diagnostic hub for symptom-based troubleshooting.
Is this limit switch compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Goodman limit switch?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
