ICP Spark Ignitor Electrode for RGS210SFCA0AAAA — OEM Ignition | Ships Today

Overview

This genuine OEM ignitor electrode (part 1179966) provides spark ignition for the burner in the ICP Tempstar/Heil RGS210SFCA0AAAA gas/electric package unit. On a heat call, the control board sends high voltage to the electrode tip, generating the spark that lights the gas at the burner. The same or a paired electrode often serves as the flame-sensing rod, confirming the burner has lit. Because the electrode sits in the harsh, high-temperature burner area, the ceramic insulator can crack and the metal rod can erode or carbon-foul over time, causing no-ignition, delayed light-off, or short-cycling on flame loss. Replacing a worn electrode restores fast, reliable burner ignition.

Specifications

Compatibility

Designed for the ICP Tempstar/Heil RGS210SFCA0AAAA and related RGS210-series units using the 1179966 ignitor electrode. Match the part number and electrode geometry to your existing component before ordering, as gap and bracket shape are model-specific.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Shut off the gas supply, disconnect power at the disconnect and breaker, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the burner compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the electrode position, gap, and the ignition lead before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Disconnect the high-voltage lead and unscrew the electrode from the burner bracket.
5. Install — Mount the new electrode, maintaining the factory spark gap, and reconnect the ignition lead.
6. Test — Restore gas and power, then confirm clean spark and a steady burner light-off on a heat call.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• No spark or weak spark at the burner
• Cracked or chipped ceramic insulator
• Repeated ignition lockouts or delayed light-off
• Carbon buildup or erosion on the electrode rod
