Overview

This genuine OEM igniter electrode (part number 1179966) is the hot surface ignition component for your ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS240HTAA0AAAA gas furnace. On each call for heat the control board sends voltage to the igniter, which glows red-hot to light the burner gas. Hot surface igniters are a normal wear item - the element becomes brittle with thousands of heat cycles and eventually cracks or burns open, leaving the furnace unable to light. A failed igniter is one of the most common causes of no-heat calls. Replacing it with the exact OEM electrode restores fast, reliable ignition without the misfires or lockouts of a worn element.

Test - Restore gas and power, then watch a full ignition cycle to confirm a clean light.
