Carrier 38YRA024 Flame Sensor
A flame sensor is only used on furnaces that burn gas and is one that will consistently detect the flame in accordance with the initial ignition sequence. Due to safety concerns, if the sensor generated a error everything remains shut off until the problem is repaired.
How can I tell if my Carrier flame sensor is failing?
- Your heating system is unable to even start and shows an error code on the board
- The main type of gas refuses to begin an ignition sequence and closes the gas valve
- The unit turns on rarely when it wants to

If you decide on picking up or ordering do your best and make sure of the model number and also make a visual comparison so that you are positive that the right flame sensor is being ordered. There is no rule that says you have to install the replacement part alone. Search for a pro in your town or city to replace the part.
Feel free to download your manual for help.
