ICP Hot Surface Igniter for RGS091LFCA0AAA — Furnace Ignition Kit | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter (part #1171306) with matching igniter wiring kit (#1188370) is the ignition source for the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS091LFCA0AAA gas furnace. When the thermostat calls for heat, the control board energizes the igniter, which glows white-hot to light the burner gas. Hot surface igniters are brittle and degrade over thousands of heating cycles. A failed igniter is the single most common cause of no-heat furnace calls — symptoms include the furnace clicking and inducer running but no flame, short cycling, or a cracked/black igniter element. The included wiring kit ensures a clean, corrosion-free connection to the control board harness.

Specifications

Compatibility

Directly fits the ICP/Heil/Tempstar/Comfortmaker RGS091LFCA0AAA gas furnace and is shared across many RGS-series 90%+ AFUE models. Always verify your existing igniter part number before ordering.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker; verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the burner compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the igniter bracket position and wiring before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Unplug the igniter harness, remove the mounting screw, and lift the old igniter out. Handle only by the ceramic base — never touch the silicon carbide element.
5. Install — Mount the new igniter, attach the wiring kit, and reconnect to the control board.
6. Test — Restore power and confirm the igniter glows and the burners light cleanly.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Furnace inducer runs but burners never light (no-heat)
• Visible cracks, chips, or black/white spots on the element
• Igniter does not glow during the heat cycle
• Repeated short cycling or lockout after several ignition attempts
