ICP Ignitor Electrode for RGS213HEEA0AAAA — Spark Ignition | Ships Today

Overview

This is a genuine OEM ignitor electrode, ICP part number 1179966, for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS213HEEA0AAAA furnace. The electrode delivers the high-voltage spark at the burner during the light-off sequence and establishes the ignition point. A clean, properly gapped electrode with an intact ceramic insulator is essential for reliable ignition — when the tip erodes, the ceramic cracks, or the electrode becomes coated with oxide, the furnace will fail to light, lock out after repeated trial-for-ignition attempts, or short-cycle. Because the electrode sits directly in the burner flame path, it wears as a normal service item. Replacing it restores fast, dependable burner ignition and prevents nuisance lockouts on cold mornings.

Specifications

Compatibility

Designed for the ICP/Tempstar/Heil RGS213HEEA0AAAA and related ICP-family furnaces using this electrode assembly. Confirm the bracket and electrode geometry match your burner before installing.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply, then 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 removing it.
4. Remove — Disconnect the ignition lead, unscrew the electrode bracket, and withdraw the old electrode from the burner.
5. Install — Mount the new electrode in the same position, set the correct spark gap per spec, and reconnect the ignition lead.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then run a heat cycle and watch for clean, immediate ignition.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Furnace fails to ignite or locks out after several attempts
• Cracked or chipped ceramic insulator on the electrode
• Eroded, corroded, or oxide-coated electrode tip
• Weak, inconsistent, or no spark at the burner
