Overview

This genuine OEM hot surface igniter (part number 1177663, with related control/igniter board reference 1186861) lights the gas burners on the heating side of your ICP WPG4484090RKA1 packaged gas/electric unit. On a heat call, the control board sends voltage to the igniter, which glows white-hot to ignite the gas as the valve opens. Hot surface igniters are brittle silicon-carbide or silicon-nitride elements that degrade with every cycle and eventually crack or lose conductivity. When the igniter fails, the furnace will not light, leaving you with no heat, repeated ignition lockouts, or a unit that runs the inducer and then shuts down.

Compatibility

Specified for the heating section of the ICP WPG4484090RKA1 packaged gas unit and the related Tempstar, Heil, and Comfortmaker models built on the same chassis. Handle the igniter only by its ceramic base — oils from skin will create hot spots that shorten its life.

Installation Guide

  1. Safety First — Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
  2. Access — Remove the burner/control compartment service panel.
  3. Document — Photograph the igniter position, bracket, and wire routing before removal.
  4. Remove — Disconnect the igniter plug, unscrew the mounting bracket, and carefully withdraw the old element without touching the glow surface.
  5. Install — Mount the new igniter in the exact factory position, reconnect the plug per your photo, and confirm proper flame alignment.
  6. Test — Restore gas and power, run a heat cycle, and verify the igniter glows and the burners light promptly.

Signs You Need a Replacement

  • No heat — burners never light on a heat call
  • Igniter does not glow or glows weakly
  • Repeated ignition lockouts after inducer runs
  • Visible cracks, chips, or carbon on the igniter element

How do I replace the igniter on my ICP WPG4484090RKA1 — OEM Part 1177663 | Ships Today?
Difficulty: Medium (20–30 min)

My furnace won’t ignite. What part is bad?
Furnace won’t ignite after the draft inducer runs = failed igniter. The hot surface igniter should glow bright orange within 60 seconds. No glow = cracked/burned out. Weak glow = degrading. Average lifespan: 3–7 years. Replacement: $15–$40 DIY.
Is this igniter compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many ICP parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP igniter?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
