FAQs

The 52W29 flame sensor verifies that the burner flame is actually present during ignition and heating operation. If the sensor does not detect flame, the control board shuts off gas flow as a safety measure to prevent unburned fuel from accumulating.
This flame sensor is commonly associated with Lennox, Armstrong, and Ducane furnaces. Search context also links it to several furnace series including G40, G41, G50, G51, G60, G61, and G71. Because furnace parts can vary by exact model and revision, match your original part number and furnace model before ordering.
Known part numbers and cross-references for this flame sensor include 52W29, 52W2901, 31L71, 31L7101, LB-74940A, and 28PV41. The safest match is the number printed on your original sensor or listed on your furnace parts diagram.
Typical symptoms include the burners lighting briefly and then shutting off within a few seconds, the furnace trying multiple ignition cycles, intermittent heat, or a furnace that starts but will not stay running. A dirty sensor can cause the same symptoms, so cleaning the rod with a fine abrasive pad is often worth trying before replacement.
On most furnaces, replacement is a straightforward service task. It usually involves shutting off power to the furnace, removing the access panel, disconnecting the sensor wire, taking out one mounting screw, swapping the sensor, and reinstalling the wire. A nut driver or screwdriver is typically all that is needed, and the job often takes about 10 to 20 minutes.
Before replacing the sensor, check whether the existing sensor is simply coated with oxidation or carbon buildup. Also inspect the wire connection, burner ground path, burner flame quality, and the sensor mounting area. Weak grounding, dirty burners, or ignition problems can mimic a failed flame sensor and cause the new part to behave the same way.
The most common issue is contamination on the sensor rod from normal combustion byproducts. Over time, oxidation and deposits reduce the sensor's ability to prove flame. Less commonly, the ceramic insulator can crack, the rod can wear down, or wiring and grounding issues can interfere with the flame signal.
