Harman Adjustable Igniter Cradle (Updated). This cradle can be used on any units using finned igniters and is backward-compatible with all auto-ignition models that previously used part # 1-00-067620, which is being phased out by Harman.
Important:Do not... overtighten the screws that press the adjustable plate against the bottom of the igniter. Overtightening these screws will cause the cradle to push away from the bottom of the burn pot, causing ignition issues.
If you have recently installed a new cradle and are experiencing delayed or missed ignition you should loosen the screws on the ignitor plate, loosen and retighten the cradle mounting screws and then *gently* snug/tighten the ignitor plate screws.
If the ignitor plate screws have been overtightened the cradle can be bent and may need to be replaced.
This cradle is not compatible with the new style PF100 Burn-pot: 1-10-73560.
This cradle is sold without mounting hardware and your existing screws must be reused. New screws can be purchased using Harman part#3-30-1101-100, QTY 2.

Install Instructions For Harman Adjustable Igniter Cradle (Updated): 1-00-777907
Igniter Cradle/Holder Installation Instructions:
1.) The igniter cradle/holder is located in the burn pot. (To access the cradle you must loosen the two wing nuts securing the burn pot clean-out cover to the bottom of the pot. Once both wing nuts are loosened the cover plate can be removed).
2.) From the front of the stove, remove the two 5/16" or 8mm screws that hold the igniter cradle inside the burn pot. This will allow the cradle to drop out (Do not discard these screws).
3.) To remove the igniter from theold-style cradle/holder, twist the two tabs that secure the flat plate to the ignitor. Your old igniter can now be removed (Pay special attention to how the ignitor is positioned in the cradle).
4.) Position your ignitor into the new cradle (If you are replacing the igniter at this time follow the instructions below on igniter replacement).
5.) Position the new cradle/holder in the same orientation as the previous holder and install the cradle using the two 5/16" or 8mm mounting screws (Updated cradles do not have a retainer plate).
6.) The new cradle/holder will have 2 holes for additional screws under the ignitor. Gently tighten these screws. This will push the igniter against the bottom of the burn pot (Do not over-tighten these screws).
Igniter Installation Instructions:
1.) The igniter is located in the burn pot. (To access the ignitor you must first loosen the two wing nuts securing the burn pot clean-out cover to the bottom of the pot. Once both wing nuts are loosened the cover plate can be removed).
2.) The igniter is accessed and changed through the front of the stove, but you will also need to access the rear of the stove to free the wiring.
3.) From the rear of the unit, locate the yellow and light blue wires for the igniter at the point where they pass through the neck of the burn pot into the rear of the stove, it is directly under the auger (On freestanding stoves this will require that the rear / side shields are removed. When replacing the ignitor on an insert the unit will need to be slid forward and pulled out of the firebox. On some units, there may be a small rubber grommet or a dab of high temp silicone where the ignitor wires transition to the back of the unit.)
4.) In this area you should notice extra wire looped together (Likely, this excess wire will be secured in position with a zip tie). This extra wire needs to be freed up so that the disconnects can be pulled forward and disconnected from the neck of the burn pot. This can be done by carefully cutting the zip tie and gently pushing about 12" of the yellow and light blue wire into the cavity of the stove where the ignitor is located.
5.) From the front of the stove, remove the two 5/16" or 8mm screws that hold the igniter cradle inside the burn pot (Do not discard these screws).
6.) Drop the igniter assembly down and pull it forward until you can see the wire disconnects, then disconnect the wires from the harness and remove the whole assembly.
7.) To remove the igniter from the (old style) cradle, twist the two tabs that secure the flat plate to the ignitor. Your old igniter can now be removed (Pay special attention to how the ignitor is positioned in the cradle. The replacement will be positioned in the same way).
8.) Position your new ignitor in the cradle and reinstall the cradle using the two 5/16" or 8mm mounting screws (The updated cradle does not have a retainer plate).
9.) From the rear of the unit, gently pull the excess wire you previously feed forward to remove the slack, coil the extra wire length, and secure it with a zip tie.
10.) Reinstall the cover plate and test your ignitor to ensure it is operating correctly.
Troubleshooting
If you are experiencing delayed ignitions and can verify that the igniter is getting hot:
Tighten the four 1/2" nuts that secure the burn pot.
Replace the door gasket and ash pan gasket (if you have separate doors).
Look at your door handle to make sure the components of the handle and the catch on the stove are in working order.
Make sure the hopper lid is making a tight seal.
If you have done all of these things and the stove still isn't firing up, replacing the cradle may solve the problem.
It is advisable to ALWAYS replace your door gasket when you are replacing an igniter. A leaking door gasket is often a contributing factor to igniter failure.
Troubleshooting Igniters:
Igniter failure can be verified on one of three ways. The easiest and most common way to see if the igniter is working is to start your stove or grill and visually look for the orange glow; however, some appliances do not have a visual way to do this, so you may have to physically feel around in the burn pot after the stove has been on for a few minutes to “feel” for heat being generated. If you can see the glow or can feel the heat from the igniter, chances are that the igniter is actually working. If this is the case, retry the startup process. Make sure your burn pot is seated correctly if it is removable. Make sure that your ash pan, door or hopper lid is closed as this will provide an airtight seal on the stove, which most igniters will require for proper ignition. If you still do not have any luck, give the stove a good cleaning, including the vent, and try again. If these attempts fail, further troubleshooting will be required, which leads us to the third method.
For this method, you will need a DMM (Digital Multi-Meter). Gain access to the igniter and remove it from the stove or insert. While you are taking the igniter out, verify that it is installed correctly with the correct mounting equipment, screws, etc.. With the igniter removed from the stove, you will need to look over the part to find the rated watts, it’s usually stamped on the metal somewhere. If you cannot find it, look on our website for the correct igniter; the information you are looking for will be under “technical specs”
If your Ohms reading is within 10%, more or less than the rating (46Ω +/- 10%), it’s good. If the igniter has a “contained short” or a short within itself and not grounding out, your Ohms reading will be very low...usually in the single digits. Generally, you cannot have a faulty igniter with too high of a resistance reading unless an igniter is installed that is way out of spec. An example of this would be your stove requires a 300W igniter but the stove has a 250W igniter installed. The reading in this scenario would be 52Ω. The reading would be correct to the igniter but would be the wrong value for the specified 300W igniter. That’s why it’s usually good to look at the part itself for the watts rating.
