What it is

The Electrode SIT is a pilot ignition electrode manufactured by Johnson & Starley, supplied under part number BOS01970. It is used on non-ASD pilot assemblies to provide the ignition spark at the pilot burner. It is listed as a gas boiler and warm air unit spare within the electrodes category.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The pilot fails to light, with no spark at the pilot burner.
  • Sparking is weak, intermittent or absent when the ignition sequence runs.
  • The electrode tip is eroded, cracked, or has a heavy carbon build-up.
  • The pilot lights but will not hold, or extinguishes shortly after ignition.
  • Visible damage or deterioration to the electrode body or its insulation.

Before you order

  • Confirm your appliance model against the manufacturer's parts list.
  • Check that your pilot assembly is the non-ASD type, as this electrode is specified for non-ASD pilots.
  • Inspect the existing electrode and its lead for damage, sooting or poor contact before replacing.
  • Have the appliance model and GC number to hand when checking compatibility.
