Check Before Replacing
- With the appliance disconnected from electrical power and gas as applicable, visually inspect the igniter for cracking, breakage, or obvious damage.
- Inspect the igniter lead, plug, and connector for looseness, burning, or damaged insulation; compare the connector and mounting bracket with the replacement.
- During a normal ignition cycle, observe from a safe distance whether the igniter glows and whether the burner ignites; do not touch the igniter or bypass safety controls.
- If using an electrical test, follow the appliance service documentation and use appropriate electrical safety precautions; do not test energized wiring unless qualified.
