OEM Goodman-Amana Auto Limit Switch (120F - 130F) 0130F00038

The code 0130F00038S identifies a specific Amana-Goodman automatic limit switch, a crucial safety component in HVAC systems that monitors internal temperatures, typically shutting off the heat if it exceeds the 120°F to 130°F range to prevent overheating and maintain safe operation. It's a genuine OEM replacement part, often light blue, designed for various Goodman, Amana, and compatible furnaces, ensuring efficient and safe heating. 

Key Characteristics:

• Function: Acts as a safety device to prevent furnace overheating by cutting power.
• Temperature Rating: Auto-opens between 120°F and 130°F.
• Compatibility: Used in Goodman, Amana, and other HVAC systems.
• Appearance: Often identified as light blue. 

What it does in your system:

When your furnace gets too hot, this switch detects the excess temperature and automatically cuts the fuel supply or shuts down the heating element, then resets once the system cools, protecting your equipment and ensuring safe indoor comfort. 

0130F00038S is a genuine OEM automatic reset primary limit switch (not a pressure switch as with previous parts). It functions as a safety device in Goodman, Amana, Janitrol, and Daikin HVAC systems to prevent overheating.
