Replaced the igniter & still won't light. I have 120volts going to igniter & coming out other wire but the igniter coil does not glow. The broiler does light though. What's up with that?

Hello Simon, I do have 120vac at my igniter, but it does not glow. I also have 120vac coming out of the igniter. Does this mean my new igniter was bad, or am I missing something? Thanks
