ICP Hot Surface Igniter Electrode for RGS214SRAA0AAAA | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter electrode (part #1179966) is the ignition source for your ICP RGS214SRAA0AAAA gas furnace. At the start of each heat cycle, the control board energizes the igniter, which heats to a glowing temperature and lights the burner gas. Igniters are among the most-replaced furnace parts because the heating element is brittle and degrades with every on/off cycle. Typical failure symptoms include no heat with the blower running, a furnace that clicks but never lights, repeated lockouts after several ignition attempts, or a visibly cracked or no-longer-glowing element. Installing a fresh OEM igniter restores dependable, fast ignition and eliminates frustrating no-heat call-backs.

Specifications

Compatibility

Direct OEM replacement for the ICP RGS214SRAA0AAAA furnace. This igniter electrode is shared across many ICP, Tempstar, Heil, and Comfortmaker gas furnace models — verify against your original part number 1179966 and mounting bracket before installing.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off gas and disconnect power, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the furnace burner-compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the igniter position, bracket, and wiring before removal.
4. Remove — Disconnect the igniter plug and unscrew the mounting bracket; handle only by the ceramic base, never the element.
5. Install — Mount the new igniter, confirm proper alignment over the burner, and reconnect the plug.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then watch a full ignition cycle to confirm a clean light-off.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• No heat although the blower and inducer run
