A furnace that will not ignite after the draft inducer runs typically has a failed igniter. The hot surface igniter should glow bright orange within 60 seconds. If it does not glow at all, it is cracked or burned out. If it glows weakly, it is degrading and should be replaced preventively. Average lifespan: 3 to 7 years.

Overview

This genuine ICP/Tempstar/Heil ignitor electrode (OEM part number 1179966) generates the high-voltage spark that lights the burners on a direct-spark ignition gas furnace. The electrode mounts at the burner assembly and arcs to ground to ignite the gas-air mixture on each call for heat. Over time the electrode tip erodes, cracks, or fouls with carbon, weakening or eliminating the spark. The result is a furnace that clicks but won't light, locks out after several failed trial-for-ignition attempts, or short-cycles on flame failure. Replacing the electrode restores a strong, consistent spark and reliable burner ignition.
