It should be noted you should only touch the ceramic. You shouldn't touch the igniter, oil from your hands can cause premature failure of a new igniter. Good video! Keep it up.
I was quoted $400.00 for a weekend replacement of an igniter that was intermittently working. I'm not mechanically inclined but I was able to order one on Amazon and do it myself the next day for $30.00 in 15 minutes. I was looking at unscrewing 3 tiny screws and clipping a connection and couldn't bring myself to pay $400.00 for that. If you are on the fence about doing it yourself, go for it!
My HVAC company was out to do a cleaning on my furnace, which has only gone through only two winters and they suggested I replace my igniter. They wanted to charge me $330 to do so I declined and I found the nighter on Amazon for 30 bucks, I have to think that I can get more than two or three years out of my igniter.
You forgot the part about...DON'T SNEEZE!!!! 😁👌 Silicone nitride igniters are so much better than the silicone carbide ones. Whenever you see a guy going from his van to the house in the winter time and it looks like he's carrying a newborn baby, you know he's got a silicone carbide igniter in his hand. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think I need a igniter. But i cant do it. So if it goes out, would the furnace give a error code flashing light? Because my furnace has no flashing light error codes. It just has a slow steady flashing light and it says thats normal. But i got no hot air. Its only cool and i dont see any flames when i look at it. So im just guessing it has to be the igniter. But i dont know. I checked the filter and its good. So im lost. Basically, is it possible that everthing works and shows no error codes yet rhe igniter is no good?

Thank you for the tip
Excellent easy to follow video. Ignitors like to go out on a very cold Sunday night. I keep a spare , new furnace igniter on hand just in case.

Exact same boat, Amazon order comes today. Our quote from trusted HVAC was $350. part was less than $30 bought ourselves. CZcams was the last stop

Silicone nitrate ones aren’t so fragile? How can a DIY get it then ? I replaced mine with another super fragile one
Nice video you save me a lot of money thanks big bro
great video and thank you
Thank u dear
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!
there are two different in size or length in that one , so which one is the correct one. 402 , 401 , 409 ?
Good explanation
Appreciate the video. Do I have to shut down the breaker or just turn switch off on furnace
I’ve heard that the silicon nitrate ones aren’t so super fragile? How can a diy get it ? Some places sell only to companies
what would charge for this? or igniter and flame rod?

Same issue here with you. Are you able to fix this? Thank you
Yeah it’s super fragile and I broke it the old one coming out which wasn’t working .
Does it matter what wires go together?
No
Ignitor is in but furnace won't turn on. Is there a step i'm missing?
