On a heat call the control board sends 120V to the igniter, which glows white-hot and ignites the gas as the valve opens. Hot surface igniters are a normal wear item — the brittle silicon-carbide or nitride element cracks from thermal cycling, dropping resistance and leaving the burners unable to light. A failed igniter is the most common cause of a furnace that clicks and tries but produces no heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Part Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1179966\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHot surface igniter electrode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eICP (Heil \/ Tempstar \/ Comfortmaker)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilicon carbide \/ nitride\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM bracket with connector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt for the ICP RGS243HEBH0AGAA and matching RGS243-series packaged units sold under Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire.
