I need to replace the Hot Surface Igniter on my Airco gas furnace. I pulled the 2 front panels off but am not sure where it is. Do I have to rip this thing apart, or is it right there in front of my eyes?

It shoud be toward one end of the burner rack. Look for two wires with high temperature insulation (looks braided). This insulation is usually white or cream colored.
