Robertshaw 41-215 Hot Surface Igniter
The Robertshaw 41-215 is a silicon carbide hot surface igniter designed as an OEM replacement for gas ranges and ovens. It operates on 120V AC and suits technicians or homeowners restoring ignition on compatible General Electric appliances using LP or natural gas.
Thermals noise and power draw
The igniter draws power only during the ignition sequence at 120V AC, with no continuous fan or motor noise. Its lead wire insulation withstands up to 391 degrees Fahrenheit, and the probe length measures 3 3/4 inches for proper flame sensing in normal operation.
Build quality and connections
The flat-tip element includes a plug-in socket and 19-inch hardwired leads for direct installation into the existing harness. The cULus listing confirms compliance with North American safety standards, and the capillary length of 8-3/8 inches matches the original mounting geometry for secure fitment.

Questions about this item
How is the 41-215 igniter installed and what step is often missed?
The igniter is hardwired at 120V AC with 19‑inch leads and includes a plug‑in socket; the step often missed is routing the leads so the insulation never exceeds 391 °F.
What maintenance or replacement will the 41-215 need later?
The silicon‑carbide heating element degrades with each ignition cycle; plan to replace the entire igniter when the oven fails to light reliably.
What limit appears first during sustained use of the 41-215?
The lead‑wire insulation rating of 391 °F is the first limit reached; prolonged exposure above that temperature will cause insulation failure.
