Title: Help! Flame detector
Post by: Mickyfinn on January 13, 2024, 12:55:09 AM
Had my flame detector replaced a few years ago.  Tech didn't use the same replacement part.  Its a wider blade (not a pin) and has two wires (not one) which he attached to a White wire and a black. I think he kind of rigged it. I think its gone bad (tried cleaning with steel wool). Found actual replacement part.  But what about the wiring.  Is the white wire the sensor and the black a ground? What do I attach to the single input on the new sensor?
Thanks It's an oldd Goodman furnace.

You know what?  I feel so stupid.  The tech also replaced the ignitor!  So I ended up cleaning the ignitor and just now did the flame detector, duh!

So all is well. Thank you so much for replying!
