You should be able to light it manually.  Check your owners manual.

Yeah, throw a handful of pellets in the burn pot and light them with a fireplace lighter or put a rubbing alcohol soaked cotton ball under them and light it off.

Be careful, tho', alcohol flame isn't visible.  It may be burning but not appear to be.

I replaced mine with the ceramic about a year ago.  So far no issues.  I also got tired of replacing the standard ignitor.

No issues to date on my RT-700.  Use ~2-3 times a week.
