Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter assembly (part #1177663, with related igniter control board #1186861) is the factory ignition component for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil WPG4244060LKA1 gas furnace. On each call for heat, the control board sends voltage to the igniter, which glows white-hot and lights the gas as it enters the burners. Because the igniter element repeatedly heats and cools, it is one of the most failure-prone parts in a furnace - the brittle silicon-carbide or silicon-nitride element eventually cracks, leaving the burners unable to light. A failed igniter is the single most common reason a furnace produces a no-heat call while the blower and controls otherwise appear healthy.
