Dinosaur Electronics 12V DC 3-Year Warranty Dinosaur UIB L POST -- Large Universal Ignitor Board with Post Connector

One board that replaces the ignitor control in most RV furnaces, refrigerators, and water heaters. The UIB L POST is the post-connector version of Dinosaur's large universal ignitor board -- a trusted go-to for technicians and DIY owners who want a single reliable replacement for a wide range of OEM boards. Built for 12V DC systems, it includes onboard diagnostics and circuit protection so you're not flying blind during troubleshooting.

One Board, Dozens of Applications

The Dinosaur UIB L POST is designed as a true universal drop-in for the standard ignitor board format used across multiple RV appliance brands. Whether your Suburban furnace stopped lighting, your Norcold refrigerator lost its ignition, or your Atwood water heater won't fire, this board covers the most common failure point -- the ignitor control circuit -- in a single, stocked part.

The "POST" designation means this board uses a post-style connector for the spark lead, as opposed to the spade-only or header-style connections found on other UIB variants. It also includes a 6-pin edge connection (not a 6-pin header style) and a spade connection, matching the wiring layouts on the appliances listed below.

Post Spark Connector

Post-style connector accommodates the spark lead wire found on compatible furnaces, refrigerators, and water heaters -- no adapter needed on supported models.

Onboard Diagnostic LEDs

Green LED confirms power to the board. Red LED indicates power to the gas valve. Simplifies fault isolation without a multimeter at every step.

Built-In Fuse Protection

An onboard fuse shields the board from short-circuit damage during installation or from a wiring fault downstream -- protecting your investment.

12V DC Only

Designed exclusively for 12-volt DC RV electrical systems. Confirm your appliance runs on 12V before ordering -- not compatible with 24V or AC-powered systems.

Compatible Appliances and Brands

The UIB L POST is confirmed compatible with the following appliance categories and brands:

  • Refrigerators: Dometic (formerly Electrolux), Norcold
  • Furnaces: Coleman, Duo-Therm, Hydro-Flame, Suburban
  • Water Heaters: Atwood, Mor-Flo, Suburban

This board uses the standard large-format ignitor board footprint. If your existing board is the large size with a post connector for the spark lead and a 6-pin edge connection, the UIB L POST is the correct replacement. If your appliance uses a 6-pin header-style connection or a small-format board, check the UIB S or UIB L (non-POST) variants instead.

Diagnostic LEDs Make Troubleshooting Faster
When a furnace or water heater stops firing, the green and red LEDs on this board let you immediately confirm whether the board is receiving power and whether it is attempting to open the gas valve -- two of the most common failure points to isolate before condemning the gas valve itself.

Water Heater and Refrigerator Installation Note

When installing the UIB L POST in a water heater or refrigerator application, Dinosaur Electronics recommends using a see-through plastic cover over the board. This protects the board from moisture and debris in compartments that are not as sealed as furnace housings. The cover is not included -- source separately if needed for your application.

Connection Types on This Board
The UIB L POST includes:
- A spade connection
- A 6-pin edge connection (not a 6-pin header/plug-in style)
- A post connector for the spark/ignitor lead
Verify your existing board's connector style before ordering. The post connector is the defining feature that differentiates this model from the standard UIB L.

Why Dinosaur Electronics?

Dinosaur Electronics has built its reputation in the RV service industry on universal ignitor boards that outperform and outlast many OEM replacements. Their boards are widely stocked by RV dealerships and service centers as first-line replacements precisely because they cover a broad compatibility range with a single SKU. The UIB line has been the default recommendation for Suburban and Atwood appliance ignition failures for well over a decade.

Installation Tips
  • Disconnect 12V power and LP gas supply before removing the old board.
  • Photograph the existing wiring before disconnecting anything.
  • Match your spark gap setting to the appliance manufacturer's spec after installing the new board.
  • After installation, cycle the appliance and confirm the green LED illuminates. If the red LED does not come on during an ignition attempt, trace the gas valve circuit.
  • For water heater and refrigerator installs, use a see-through cover over the board.

Important Information -- Read Before Installing
  • This board is for 12V DC systems only. Do not use in 24V or AC-powered appliances.
  • The spark lead connection on this board is a post-style connector. Verify your appliance uses a post connector, not a spade or header-style ignitor lead, before installing.
  • The 6-pin connection is an edge connection, not a header/plug-in style. Confirm your harness matches before ordering.
  • Always disconnect 12V power and shut off LP gas before removing or installing any ignitor board.
  • A see-through plastic protective cover is recommended but not included when installing in water heater or refrigerator compartments.
  • This is a universal board -- confirm physical connector match to your existing board before installation, as not every appliance within the listed brands may be compatible.
