White-Rodgers 767A-356 Ignitor

The White-Rodgers 767A-356 is a professional-grade silicon carbide hot surface ignitor designed for reliable ignition in residential and commercial 120V gas furnaces. This OEM furnace replacement part features a robust silicon carbide element and a high-temperature ceramic base, ensuring stable performance under extreme thermal cycling. Engineered as a direct drop-in for the 767A-309, it includes 6-inch lead wires equipped with a 0.093-inch male pin receptacle for rapid field integration. This nitride-style upgradeable carbide igniter is compatible with 15, 17, and 45-second ignition systems, making it a versatile staple for any service truck. The HSI ignitor operates at 1.8 amps and is CSA certified, providing the fast, consistent heat-up required to ensure clean combustion and prevent nuisance lockouts in modern high-efficiency HVAC equipment. Its moisture-resistant insulation and precision-fired heating element provide the durability needed for demanding heating seasons without the risk of premature failure typically seen in aftermarket knock-offs.

• Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered specifically to replace the White-Rodgers 767A-309 without modification.
• High-Temperature Durability: Silicon carbide construction handles repetitive thermal stress in high-efficiency gas furnace ignition cycles.
• Plug-and-Play Installation: Pre-terminated 6-inch leads with 0.093" male pins allow for immediate connection to existing wiring harnesses.
• Optimized Resistance: Designed to work seamlessly with 120V HSI furnace controls to prevent ignition failure codes.
• Safety Certified: CSA-rated components ensure compliance with field safety standards for burner assemblies.

Can I touch the silicon carbide element during installation?
No. Never touch the black heating element with your bare hands. Skin oils can create hot spots on hot surface ignitors, leading to rapid degradation and element failure during operation.

How do I test if my White-Rodgers 767A-356 is bad?
Disconnect the power and perform a resistance (ohms) test at room temperature. A functioning 767A-356 should typically read between 40 and 90 ohms. If the reading is infinite (open circuit), the element is cracked and requires replacement.

What causes these ignitors to fail prematurely?
Beyond physical handling, HSI ignitor life is shortened by over-voltage (above 132V), contaminated combustion air, or condensate dripping onto the hot element during the heating cycle.
