Mounted on the heat-exchanger bulkhead, it continuously monitors supply-air temperature and shuts off the gas burners if the furnace overheats — the primary defense against a cracked heat exchanger caused by restricted airflow. This auto-reset control re-closes once temperatures return to a safe range, restoring normal operation automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primary high-limit temperature control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20162904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e GME951005DXAB (GME95 series)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEquipment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gas Furnace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReset:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Over-temperature burner shutoff \/ heat-exchanger protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe primary limit is a critical safety component, and its trip point is matched to the GME951005DX airflow and heat-exchanger design.
