Overview
This OEM ignitor electrode (part number 1179966) is the direct spark ignition component for the ICP Tempstar Heil RGS213LTAA0AAAA gas furnace. The electrode produces the high-voltage spark that lights the burner gas on each heat cycle and, in many setups, doubles as the flame-sensing rod that verifies ignition to the control board. A cracked insulator or eroded tip is a leading cause of intermittent no-heat service calls. Common symptoms include the furnace sparking but not lighting, ignition lockouts, flame-loss short-cycling, or ignition only after multiple attempts. A genuine OEM electrode restores the correct spark gap and reliable flame rectification.

Compatibility
Engineered as the factory replacement for the ICP Tempstar Heil RGS213LTAA0AAAA gas furnace, and fits related RGS-series furnaces built on the same burner and ignition platform across ICP brands (Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire). Verify your part number against the unit before ordering.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker, shut off the gas, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
- Access — Remove the burner/control access panel.
- Document — Photograph the electrode wire routing and the spark/sense gap position before disconnecting.
- Remove — Disconnect the high-voltage lead, remove the mounting screw, and lift the old electrode clear of the burner assembly.
- Install — Mount the new electrode, confirm the spark gap aligns with the burner per the photo, and reconnect the ignition lead.
- Test — Restore gas and power, then verify clean ignition and stable flame sensing through a full heat cycle.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Furnace clicks/sparks but the burner fails to light.
- Repeated ignition lockouts or no-heat calls.
- Cracked ceramic insulator or visibly eroded electrode tip.
- Flame loss / short-cycling shortly after ignition.
