ICP Hot Surface Igniter Kit for RGS120SECB0AAA — 1171306 Ignitor + Wiring Harness | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter kit is the factory replacement ignition component for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS120SECB0AAA gas furnace. The kit pairs the 1171306 igniter element with the 1188370 igniter wiring harness, giving you everything required to restore reliable ignition. The hot surface igniter is energized by the control board on each call for heat; it glows to roughly 2,000°F and ignites the gas at the burner manifold. Because the igniter element is a brittle silicon-carbide component carrying 120V, it is one of the most common furnace failure points. Typical failure symptoms include a furnace that runs the inducer and blower but never lights, a cracked or visibly burned-out igniter, repeated lockouts after several ignition attempts, or no glow at all when you watch through the sight port.

Specifications

Compatibility

Engineered as a direct-fit OEM replacement for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS120SECB0AAA furnace and other models in the same International Comfort Products family that specify igniter 1171306. The included 1188370 wiring kit ensures the connector and lead match the furnace harness without splicing. Always confirm your existing part number before ordering.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off the gas, disconnect electrical power at the furnace switch or breaker, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the burner compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the igniter mounting and wiring routing before disconnecting anything.
4. Remove — Unplug the igniter connector, remove the igniter mounting screw, and carefully withdraw the old igniter from the burner bracket. Handle only by the ceramic base — never touch the element.
5. Install — Seat the new 1171306 igniter in the bracket, secure the mounting screw, and connect the new 1188370 harness to the control board, matching your reference photo.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then run a heat cycle and confirm the igniter glows and the burners light within the normal ignition window.

• Furnace inducer and blower run but burners never ignite.
