My furnace will not ignite. What part is bad?

A furnace that will not ignite after the draft inducer runs typically has a failed igniter. The hot surface igniter should glow bright orange within 60 seconds. If it does not glow at all, it is cracked or burned out. If it glows weakly, it is degrading and should be replaced preventively. Average lifespan: 3 to 7 years.

Is this igniter compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Tempstar parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne systems since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across multiple brand labels with different model numbers. To verify cross-compatibility, check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or contact info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number for confirmation.

Overview

This OEM hot surface igniter (part number 1172533, "IGNITOR HSI") provides reliable ignition for the Tempstar T8MPN100F14B2 gas furnace. On a call for heat the control board sends voltage to the igniter, which glows red-hot to ignite the gas at the burners as the Honeywell VR8205S gas valve (OEM 1175705) opens. Hot surface igniters are a common wear item — the brittle silicon-carbide or silicon-nitride element degrades with each heating cycle and eventually cracks or fails to reach ignition temperature. When the igniter fails, the furnace will run its inducer and pre-purge but never light, often locking out after several failed ignition attempts. Replacing the igniter restores dependable, on-demand heating.

Compatibility

Built for the Tempstar T8MPN100F14B2 furnace and used across ICP-family furnaces (Heil, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire) sharing the same hot surface ignition system. The companion gas valve referenced on this model is the Honeywell VR8205S (OEM 1175705). Confirm the igniter mounting bracket and plug match your existing part before installing.

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 compartment service panel.
Document — Photograph the igniter position, bracket orientation, and wiring plug before disconnecting.
Remove — Unplug the igniter connector and remove the mounting screw(s). Handle the new igniter only by its ceramic base — never touch the fragile element.
Install — Mount the new igniter so it aligns over the burner, then reconnect the plug per your photo.
Test — Restore gas and power, then run a heat cycle and confirm the igniter glows and the burners light promptly.
