ICP Igniter Electrode for RGS210HFAA0AAAA — Direct Spark | Ships Today

Overview

This genuine OEM ignitor electrode (part 1179966) for ICP / Tempstar / Heil model RGS210HFAA0AAAA produces the high-voltage spark that lights the burners on a direct-spark gas furnace. The electrode sits at the burner and arcs to ground (or to a paired rod) to ignite the gas at the start of each heating cycle. A cracked ceramic insulator, eroded electrode tip, or incorrect spark gap leads to ignition failure, delayed ignition with a startup "whump," or repeated lockouts as the control gives up after failed ignition attempts.

Specifications

Compatibility

Designed for ICP-family RGS-series gas furnaces, including model RGS210HFAA0AAAA, and shared across Tempstar, Heil, and Comfortmaker furnaces using this direct-spark electrode. Confirm the bracket shape and spark gap against your existing part before installing.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter before working near the burners.
2. Access — Remove the furnace service panel to expose the burner assembly.
3. Document — Photograph the electrode position, spark gap, and igniter lead routing before removal.
4. Remove — Disconnect the high-voltage lead and unscrew the electrode bracket from the burner.
5. Install — Mount the new electrode at the correct gap, reconnect the lead, and keep ceramic clean of fingerprints/oil.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then watch a full ignition cycle for a strong, immediate spark and clean light-off.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Furnace fails to ignite or locks out after several attempts
• Delayed ignition with a loud "whump" at startup
• Cracked or chipped ceramic insulator
• Weak, erratic, or no visible spark at the electrode
