Review on ICM Controls ICM295 IPI Gas Ignition Control: Top-Quality Replacement for Carrier LH33WZ510 by William Bell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Problem Solved - Ignition Parts

Provides a constant spark to start the warning light instead of every 10 seconds as before. I replaced the original spark igniter because the pilot won't ignite a few minutes after the thermostat calls for heat. Dangerous condition as the pilot gas valve is open all the time the thermostat needs heat. I had to use a lighter to start it. t now starts the pilot after a few seconds. It is compatible with old carriers - Bryant/Payne HVAC, even if the current is different. Both use 24V to create the spark. The connections are the same as the original, I just had to solder the blade to the high voltage socket so I could use the original cable. At first I thought the problem was with the pilot burner, but replacing it with a new one didn't solve the problem. This is a spark igniter as both original and new pilot burners will work with the new ICM295. I just keep it as a reserve. I also replaced the motherboard with an ICM and fixed the short circuit issue.

Pros
  • Control Units
