Overview
This OEM ignitor electrode (part 1179966) is the ignition component for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS210LTEA0AAAA gas furnace. The electrode delivers the high-voltage spark that ignites the gas at the burner during each heat call. A precise spark gap and a clean, undamaged electrode tip are essential for fast, reliable light-off and consistent flame establishment.
Over time the electrode tip erodes, cracks, or accumulates carbon and corrosion, which weakens or eliminates the spark. The most common symptom of a failing ignitor electrode is a furnace that clicks or attempts ignition but won't light, locks out after several failed trials, or produces delayed ignition with a noticeable "whoomph" at start-up. Because it is a wear item directly in the flame path, the electrode is a frequent no-heat culprit.

Compatibility
This electrode is the OEM-specified ignition part for the ICP-family RGS210LTEA0AAAA gas furnace and the related Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker, and Arcoaire RGS210 units that use part 1179966. Confirm your furnace's ignition part number before ordering, and inspect the ceramic insulator and bracket for a match.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker and shut off the gas. Verify zero voltage before working near the burner assembly.
- Access — Remove the burner compartment door to reach the ignition assembly.
- Document — Photograph the electrode position, wire routing, and spark-gap location relative to the burner.
- Remove — Disconnect the high-voltage ignition lead, remove the mounting screw(s), and withdraw the old electrode without disturbing the burner.
- Install — Mount the new electrode, restore the factory spark gap per the photo, and reconnect the ignition lead securely.
- Test — Restore gas and power, initiate a heat call, and confirm a strong spark with prompt, quiet burner ignition and stable flame.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Furnace sparks or clicks but the burner won't light
- Control locks out after repeated failed ignition trials
- Delayed ignition with a rollout or "whoomph" at start-up
- Cracked ceramic insulator, eroded tip, or carbon/corrosion buildup
