Ideal Ignition Probe Assembly Sup+ 079778

The Ideal 079778 is an ignition probe assembly used on Ideal Commercial Super Plus appliances. It sits within the combustion and exhaust group of the appliance and provides the spark that lights the burner during the ignition sequence. The assembly is supplied as a single unit for direct replacement of the original probe.

• The burner fails to light and the appliance locks out on an ignition fault.
• No spark is visible at the electrode while the ignition sequence runs.
• Ignition is intermittent, with the appliance lighting on some attempts and not others.
• The probe tip or ceramic insulator shows cracking, erosion or heavy carbon build-up.
• Lockouts continue after the probe has been cleaned and the gap reset.

• Check the appliance model and GC number against the compatibility list, as more than one probe variant is used across this range.
• Inspect the existing probe lead and connector before fitting the replacement.
• The alternative number 1175093 identifies the same assembly.
• This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
