It is the genuine Jandy OEM part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat a hot surface ignitor does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of a standing pilot, the heater energizes a ceramic element that glows hot enough to light the gas at the burner. It is a wear part. The element degrades over years of heating and cooling, and eventually it no longer reaches ignition temperature, so the heater goes through its sequence and never lights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you replace it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWatch the ignitor through a start cycle if you can. If it never glows, or glows dull and uneven, it is the part. If it glows properly and the heater still will not light, look at the gas supply and the control side instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandle the ignitor by its bracket.
