The igniter electrode is the spark-ignition component that creates the high-voltage arc needed to light the main burners on each call for heat. Mounted at the burner assembly, the electrode tip and ceramic insulator must be clean, intact, and correctly gapped for reliable ignition. A cracked insulator, eroded electrode tip, or carbon buildup causes hard starts, delayed ignition, repeated ignition lockouts, or a furnace that runs the inducer and gas valve but never lights. Replacing a worn igniter electrode restores fast, consistent burner ignition and prevents nuisance lockout faults on the control board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Part Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1179966\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDescription\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIgniter Electrode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDirect Spark Ignition Assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eICP (Heil \/ Tempstar \/ Comfortmaker)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFits Model\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRGS181HEBB7CGAA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Direct Replacement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered as a factory replacement for the ICP-built RGS181HEBB7CGAA gas furnace and the closely related Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker variants that share the same burner and ignition assembly.
