Overview

This OEM ignitor electrode (part number 1179966) provides the ignition source for the burners on the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS210HFEA0AAAA gas furnace. On each heat call the control board energizes the ignitor to light the gas at the burner, and the same or a paired electrode confirms flame. A cracked ceramic, eroded tip, or open electrode prevents the furnace from lighting — the inducer and gas valve may cycle but no flame is established, often locking the board out after several failed attempts. Replacing it with the genuine OEM electrode restores fast, dependable ignition and proper flame confirmation.

Compatibility

Designed for the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS210HFEA0AAAA and other RGS-family gas furnaces that use OEM ignitor electrode 1179966. Confirm the part number and bracket orientation against your existing electrode before ordering, as ignitor geometry is model-specific.

Installation Guide

  1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker, shut off the gas, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
  2. Access — Remove the burner compartment service panel.
  3. Document — Photograph the electrode position, gap, and wire routing before removal.
  4. Remove — Disconnect the ignition lead and unscrew the electrode from the burner assembly. Handle the ceramic carefully and avoid touching the new tip.
  5. Install — Mount the new electrode at the original gap and orientation, then reconnect the ignition lead.
  6. Test — Restore gas and power and confirm the burners light promptly and flame is sensed on the first ignition attempt.

Signs You Need a Replacement

  • Furnace cycles the inducer and gas valve but never lights.
  • Control board locks out after repeated failed ignition attempts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Igniter fit my ICP RGS210HFEA0AAAA — OEM 1179966 | Ships Today?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM igniter for the ICP RGS210HFEA0AAAA — OEM 1179966 | Ships Today. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the igniter on my ICP RGS210HFEA0AAAA — OEM 1179966 | Ships Today?
Difficulty: Medium (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power and gas. Step 2: Open furnace panel. Step 3: Locate igniter near burners. Step 4: Disconnect two-wire plug. Step 5: Remove mounting screw. Step 6: Install new igniter — do NOT touch element with fingers. Step 7: Reconnect, close panel, restore power/gas.
My furnace won’t ignite. What part is bad?
Furnace won’t ignite after the draft inducer runs = failed igniter. The hot surface igniter should glow bright orange within 60 seconds. No glow = cracked/burned out. Weak glow = degrading. Average lifespan: 3–7 years. Replacement: $15–$40 DIY.
Is this igniter compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many ICP parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP igniter?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
