The Goodman 20261709S Hot Surface Ignitor is a genuine OEM HSI for the GMPE075-3 gas furnace. This silicon-nitride/carbide element glows red-hot to light the burners on each heating call. Ignitors are a wear item — repeated thermal cycling eventually cracks the element, producing hard no-ignition and no-heat faults. Because the tip is fragile, handling the old ignitor by its ceramic base (never the glowing element) is essential.

Specifications

OEM Part Number: 20261709S
Type: Hot Surface Ignitor (HSI)
Compatible Model: Goodman GMPE075-3 gas furnace
Brand: Goodman
Mounting: Factory bracket with keyed connector
Function: Ignites burners at the start of each heat cycle

OEM vs. Generic

This genuine Goodman OEM ignitor ships with the correct bracket, gasket, and plug so it drops straight into the GMPE075 burner assembly. Universal ignitor kits require adapting the mount and splicing leads, and mismatched resistance can shorten service life. The OEM part is tuned to the furnace's ignition timing for reliable, repeatable lights.

Installation Difficulty

Moderate (2 of 5). Shut off power and gas, remove the burner-compartment panel, unscrew the ignitor bracket, unplug the connector, and install the replacement — handling only the ceramic base. Roughly 20–30 minutes. Verify a clean ignition sequence and flame after reassembly.
