Overview
This is the genuine OEM spark igniter / sparker (ICP part number 1184216) for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS180SREA0AAAA furnace. A spark igniter uses a high-voltage electrode positioned at the burner to create a repeating arc that lights the gas on each call for heat. On ignition, the control board sends high voltage to the electrode; the spark jumps the gap to the burner ground, igniting the gas-air mixture, and the system then proves flame before continuing. A worn or cracked igniter — eroded electrode tip, cracked ceramic insulator, or carbon-fouled gap — leads to delayed ignition, rough light-off, repeated lockouts, or no ignition at all. This direct-fit OEM sparker restores a strong, consistent arc and the correct electrode gap so the furnace lights cleanly every cycle. Always install with the factory-specified gap and a sound ground for reliable ignition.

Installation Guide
- Safety First — Shut off gas and disconnect electrical power; verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
- Access — Remove the furnace burner-compartment service panel.
- Document — Photograph the igniter position, gap, and wiring before removal.
- Remove — Unplug the high-voltage lead and unscrew the old igniter from the burner bracket.
- Install — Mount the new sparker, set the factory-specified electrode gap, and reconnect the ignition lead and ground.
- Test — Restore gas and power, then run a heat cycle and confirm a strong, immediate spark and clean burner light-off.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Delayed ignition or a rough, noisy light-off
- Repeated ignition lockouts after several failed attempts
- Weak, intermittent, or no visible spark at the burner
- Cracked ceramic insulator or eroded electrode tip
