Amana-Goodman 0130F00505 Pressure Switch

The Amana-Goodman 0130F00505 Pressure Switch is a critical safety component designed for specific high-efficiency furnaces. This -0.70" WC SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) switch ensures the inducer motor is generating sufficient negative pressure to safely vent combustion gases. Operating on a normally open circuit, the 0130F00505 closes when the diaphragm detects the precise calibrated vacuum of -0.70 inches water column, allowing the ignition sequence to continue. Engineered for reliability in Goodman and Amana furnace repair, this component serves as the direct replacement for B1370158. Proper furnace pressure switch troubleshooting is essential; a failure here prevents the burner from firing, typically resulting in a specific diagnostic flash code on the integrated control board. When installing this HVAC replacement part, ensure the tubing is clear of debris and the furnace is properly leveled to maintain accurate pressure readings.

Key Benefits

• Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces factory part numbers 0130F00505 and B1370158 for a precise fit.
• Calibrated Precision: Factory-set at -0.70" WC specifically for compatible Amana and Goodman venting systems.
• Enhanced Safety: Prevents furnace operation if the inducer motor or flue pipe is obstructed.
• Rugged Construction: Designed to withstand the high temperatures and frequent cycling of modern gas furnaces.

Common Questions

What causes an Amana furnace pressure switch to stay open?
Common culprits include a failing inducer motor, a blocked flue pipe, condensation in the pressure tubing, or a cracked heat exchanger. Always verify the vacuum reading with a manometer before replacing the switch.

Is the 0130F00505 compatible with all Goodman furnaces?
No, this part is calibrated to -0.70" WC. You must verify the specific WC rating and part number against your unit’s data plate or parts manual to ensure proper safety operation.

Can I use a universal pressure switch instead of the 0130F00505?
While universal switches exist, technicians prefer the 0130F00505 OEM replacement to ensure the trip point matches the original system engineering and safety certification.
