ICP Hot Surface Igniter Kit for WFEL135D060A1 - OEM 1176919 | Ships Today

Overview

This is the genuine OEM hot surface igniter (part number 1176919) for the ICP / Heil / Tempstar WFEL135D060A1, supplied with its mounting bracket (part number 1183455). The hot surface igniter glows to a high temperature on a call for heat and ignites the gas at the burners. Because the igniter element is brittle and degrades with every cycle, it is one of the most common no-heat failures. Symptoms include the furnace failing to light, the igniter glowing but no flame, a cracked or visibly broken element, or a system that locks out after several failed ignition attempts. Always handle the new igniter by its base, never by the fragile element.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First - Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the gas supply, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access - Remove the burner compartment service panel.
3. Document - Photograph the igniter position, bracket orientation, and wire routing before disconnecting.
4. Remove - Unplug the igniter connector, remove the bracket screw, and carefully withdraw the old igniter without striking the element.
5. Install - Mount the new igniter and bracket, handling only the base, and reconnect the wire harness per your photo.
6. Test - Restore gas and power, then watch a full cycle to confirm the igniter glows and the burners light.
