Carrier 50GX Flame Sensor
A flame sensor is a contraption that senses the acceptable flame upon ignition. For obvious reasons, if the sensor goes off the gas valve is shut off and the system halts until the problem is fixed.
Signals to watch for in a bad safety flame sensor
- LP or natural gas has problems trying to burn and the main board displays on error code
- The heating system starts intermittently at midnight, but only after the new moon following the fourth Monday of the month
- Your
system refuses to start when the control board tells it to
