ICP Ignitor Electrode for RGS210SDCA0AAAA — OEM Direct Spark | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM ignitor electrode (part 1179966) provides the spark that lights the burners on ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS-series gas furnaces. On a heat call, the control board sends high voltage to the electrode tip, creating a spark across the gap to ignite the gas at the burner. The electrode also helps establish a reliable ignition sequence. A cracked ceramic insulator, eroded electrode tip, or incorrect gap leads to failed ignition, delayed ignition with a 'puff,' or lockout after repeated trial-for-ignition attempts.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off gas and disconnect power, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the burner compartment door.
3. Document — Photograph the electrode position, gap, and wiring before removal.
4. Remove — Disconnect the ignition lead and unscrew the electrode from the burner assembly.
5. Install — Mount the new electrode, confirm the spark gap matches spec, and reconnect the lead.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then watch a full ignition cycle for a clean, prompt light-off.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Furnace fails to ignite or locks out
• Delayed ignition with a 'whoomp' or puff
