Overview
This genuine OEM igniter electrode (part number 1179966) is the ignition component for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS213SRAA0AAAA gas furnace. The electrode delivers the high-voltage spark that lights the burner gas during each heating cycle and, in many configurations, doubles as part of the flame-proving circuit. Because it sits directly in the burner flame path, the electrode and its ceramic insulator are subject to constant thermal cycling, carbon buildup, and cracking. When it degrades, the furnace will spark weakly or not at all, fail to prove ignition, and lock out after several failed trials — leaving the home without heat on a call.

Compatibility
Designed for the ICP RGS213SRAA0AAAA and shared across compatible Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire furnaces that use this direct-ignition electrode assembly. Match the electrode geometry and mounting bracket to your existing part before installing.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Shut off gas and electrical power, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching the burner assembly.
- Access — Remove the furnace burner compartment service panel.
- Document — Photograph the electrode position, gap, and wire routing before removal.
- Remove — Disconnect the ignition lead and unscrew the electrode from the burner bracket; avoid touching the ceramic with bare hands.
- Install — Mount the new electrode, confirm the spark gap matches OEM spec, and reconnect the ignition lead per your photo.
- Test — Restore gas and power, start a heat call, and confirm a strong spark and clean burner light-off.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Furnace clicks but produces a weak spark or no spark at all.
- Repeated ignition lockouts after several failed trials for ignition.
- Cracked or carbon-fouled ceramic insulator.
- Burners light intermittently or delay before catching.
