Overview

This is the genuine ICP OEM igniter electrode (part number 1179966) for the RGS240SREA0AAAA gas furnace. The igniter electrode generates the spark that lights the burner gas at the start of every heating cycle. Each ignition sequence subjects the electrode tip to intense heat and combustion byproducts, so over time the tip erodes, cracks, or fouls and the furnace begins to fail on ignition. Installing the exact OEM electrode restores a clean, properly gapped spark and reliable light-off, eliminating no-heat lockouts caused by a worn or damaged igniter.
