ICP Gas Valve Support Bracket for RGS102LRBA0AAA — OEM 1178238 | Ships Today

Overview

This is the genuine OEM gas valve support bracket (part number 1178238) for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS102LRBA0AAA gas furnace. The bracket secures the gas valve to the burner assembly and manifold, holding it in the correct position and orientation so the valve outlet aligns precisely with the burner inlet. A properly mounted valve is essential for safe combustion: misalignment can stress the manifold connection, cause gas leaks, or allow vibration that loosens fittings over time. While the bracket itself does not fail electrically, it can corrode, crack, or become bent during a previous valve replacement — leaving the new valve unsupported. Replacing a damaged or missing bracket restores the factory mounting geometry and prevents downstream gas-train problems.

Specifications

Compatibility

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off the gas supply at the manual shutoff valve and disconnect electrical power. Verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the furnace burner-compartment door/service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the gas valve, bracket, and manifold orientation before removing anything.
4. Remove — Disconnect the gas line union and valve wiring, lift out the valve, then unfasten the old bracket from the burner assembly.
5. Install — Mount the new bracket in the same position, reattach the gas valve, reconnect the union with fresh pipe dope, and restore wiring per your photo.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then leak-check every joint with soap solution and verify a clean burner ignition.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Gas valve sits loose, tilted, or unsupported in the burner compartment
• Visible rust, cracking, or bending on the existing bracket
• Bracket missing or damaged after a prior valve swap
