ICP Hot Surface Igniter for WFSR080B048A2 — Silicon Nitride with Bracket | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter assembly is the ignition source for your ICP WFSR080B048A2 gas furnace. It includes the silicon-nitride igniter element (OEM 1176919) and its mounting bracket (OEM 1184324). On a heat call, the control board energizes the igniter; it glows orange-hot and lights the gas at the burners. A cracked, carbon-fouled, or open igniter is a leading cause of no-heat calls — the furnace clicks, attempts to light, and locks out after repeated failures.

Specifications

Compatibility

Engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the ICP/Heil/Tempstar WFSR080B048A2 gas furnace. The same bracket-and-igniter pair is shared across many ICP-family WFSR-series furnaces — confirm your model number before ordering.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off the gas and disconnect electrical power; verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the furnace burner-compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the igniter wiring and bracket position before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Unplug the igniter connector, remove the bracket screw(s), and lift out the old igniter. Handle only by the ceramic base — never touch the element.
5. Install — Mount the new igniter and bracket, align it to the burner per your photo, and reconnect the harness.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, run a heat cycle, and confirm the igniter glows and the burners light.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Furnace clicks and tries to light but produces no flame
