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 ignition kit covers the hot surface igniter (part number 1172533, IGNITOR HSI) and the matched snap-mount gas valve (part number 1175705, VALVE N HSI SNAP HW VR8205S) for the Tempstar T8MPN100F20B2 gas furnace. The HSI glows hot to ignite the burners on a call for heat, while the Honeywell VR8205S gas valve meters the gas supply and opens only when ignition conditions are safe. Together they form the heart of the furnace's ignition sequence — a failure in either causes no-heat or short-cycling lockouts.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the switch and breaker, shut off the gas supply, and verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
Access — Remove the burner-compartment service panel.
Document — Photograph the igniter position, valve wiring, and gas-line connections before disconnecting.
Remove — Unplug and unscrew the old igniter (handle by the ceramic base only); disconnect the valve wiring and gas line, then remove the old valve.
Install — Mount the new gas valve with proper thread sealant on gas connections, seat the new igniter in the flame path, and reconnect all wiring per your photos.
Test — Restore gas and power, leak-check all gas joints with soap solution, then run a heat cycle to confirm ignition and steady burner flame.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Igniter is cracked or reads open on a meter.
