How do I find my igniter?

Unscrew and remove the service panel on the side of the furnace and find the ignitor. It is usually mounted on a V-shaped bracket near the gas port. The ignitor has two wires attached to the back of it and has a flat metal tip.

How do I know if my spark module is bad?

You should see a strong white spark between the igniter pin and the metal edge of the gas burner. If you see a weak yellow spark or no spark at all AND if you have already checked the igniter wire and its connections, I suspect that the module has failed and needs replacement.

How does a spark ignitor work?

When the button on a Piezo electric ignitor is pressed, a spring loaded hammer strikes quartz in order to start a fire. This is a typical process in lighters. A spark can be created by creating the necessary amount of voltage. The process creates enough energy to produce a spark.

Why is my gas heater not lighting?

The pilot light or ignition sensor is usually the most common issue when your furnace will not ignite. Then, remove the front panel to find the ignitor or ignition sensor. This is typically located near the burners. If the sensor or ignitor is dirty, it will need to be cleaned.
