Overview
This OEM ignitor (part number 1184216) is the ignition component for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS180HTCA0AAAA gas furnace. The igniter heats or sparks to light the burner gas at the start of every heating cycle. It is one of the most frequently replaced wear parts in a furnace because it is subjected to repeated thermal shock — heating to over 1,800°F and cooling on every call for heat. When the igniter cracks, carbons over, or fails to reach ignition temperature, the furnace will not light and the system typically locks out after several failed trial-for-ignition attempts. Common symptoms include no heat, the blower running with cold air, a furnace that clicks but never fires, and ignition lockout fault codes on the control board.

Compatibility
Engineered as a direct-fit OEM replacement for the ICP Tempstar Heil RGS180HTCA0AAAA furnace. ICP manufactures equipment under several family brands — Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker, and others — that share components, so this igniter also services equivalent models in those lines that call for part 1184216. Always verify the part number against your existing igniter before ordering.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker. Shut off the gas. Verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
- Access — Remove the furnace burner/control access panel.
- Document — Photograph the igniter bracket position and wire routing before disconnecting.
- Remove — Unplug the igniter connector, remove the mounting screw(s), and carefully withdraw the old igniter without touching the fragile element.
- Install — Mount the new igniter handling it only by the ceramic base, align it to the burner per your photo, and reconnect the wiring.
- Test — Restore gas and power, then run a heat cycle and confirm the burner lights on the first trial for ignition.
Signs You Need a Replacement
