Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter (HSI) is the direct-fit ignition component for the ICP Tempstar/Heil WFEL070B036A1 gas furnace. The hot surface igniter is energized at the start of each heating cycle, glowing bright orange to ignite the gas as it leaves the burners. It operates on 120V line voltage and is the single most common cause of no-heat calls on this furnace platform. This listing covers the complete ignition group for the model, including OEM igniter 1176919, igniter bracket 1183455, and the matching HSI/valve assembly 36J24618 (OEM 1176929). When the igniter cracks, carbon-fouls, or loses its electrical path, the furnace will lock out and the control board will flash an ignition-failure fault code.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker, shut off gas, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the burner-compartment service panel.
Document — Photograph the igniter wiring and bracket position before disconnecting.
Remove — Unplug the igniter connector, remove the mounting screw, and lift the old igniter and bracket clear of the burner. Handle the new ceramic element by the bracket only — never touch the silicon-carbon surface.
Install — Mount the new igniter and bracket, reconnect the plug, and confirm proper gap and alignment over the burner.
Test — Restore gas and power, start a heat call, and confirm the igniter glows and the burners light within the trial-for-ignition window.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Furnace blower runs but burners never light (no heat).
Igniter does not glow, or glows weak/uneven.
