Parts Express OEM Upgraded Replacement for Goodman Furnace Hot Surface Ignitor/Igniter 201657-03S

Was exactly like first picture.. Installed quick and worked instantly.. Perfect

Repair my furnace ,worked great

The Ignitor I received did not look like the one in the picture, BUT I am okay with that. The connector was the same and I personally think the design of what I received may be better. Instead of having the opening on the metal surface, it is solid like some of the other buyers pictures. I’m hoping this resolves the problem I’ve been having with them cracking and no longer working. It was easy to install (no splicing wires like some of the universal types). The length of the metal surface was longer than one I purchased locally that was too short and wouldn’t work. The furnace now fires up on the first attempt instead of the 3rd attempt with the old ignitor. This was also considerably cheaper than the ones I’ve purchased locally and it arrived a day earlier than expected. If you can wait for shipping, I would recommend this part. I’m considering ordering a spare just in case I need another one in the future.

Ignitor looks slightly different than OEM, but so far seems to function properly, box appeared to have been opened, part taken out and put back in, no idea if actually received the updated part or it got substituted, but working ?

This replaced the burnt out original on my Goodman furnace. It's been going strong for over a month. Here's how I figured out the problem: Error light indicated something wrong with the flame system. I went though the start up sequence and was able to manually fire it with a long lighter. So I cleaned the flame sensor, but no dice. After checking the filter, purge valve, and blower, I removed the old igniter (unscrewed from the housing and gently unclipped the connector) and noticed a white mark with the smallest hairline - a crack. Checked it with my multimeter and sure enough, there was no continuity. Installation took literally a minute and my furnace was making hot air by itself again.
