4055539706 Genuine Halogen Lampholder Assembly for Electrolux Group Rangehoods, Rangehood Light Socket Fitting

Genuine assembly 4055539706 is a halogen lampholder for Electrolux group rangehoods, the fitting that holds the globe and connects it to the hood's lighting circuit. Our records don't include the globe type or voltage, and there's no model list on file. Compare it with the fitting in your hood, or send the model and PNC from the label behind the grease filters and we'll check it.

Rangehood light not working after a new globe

Halogen globes run very hot, and that heat cooks the lampholder over time. The plastic goes brittle, contacts lose their spring and wires near the socket become stiff and discoloured. The usual story is a rangehood light that flickers, works only when the globe is wiggled, or still won't light after a new globe goes in. A melted or blackened socket is a clear sign. Check the light switch and the transformer or driver too, as these can also stop the lights working.

Replacing the lampholder

Turn the rangehood off at the wall and let the globe cool before touching it. Remove the grease filters and the light cover, then ease the lampholder out of its cut-out. Note how the wires connect or photograph the plug, and transfer them to the new holder. Handle halogen globes with a cloth, as skin oil shortens their life. Test the light before refitting the filters.

Questions about this part

Can I fit an LED globe in this holder?

Only if the LED is made for the same base and the hood's power supply suits it. Some halogen circuits use transformers that don't work well with LEDs. The safest choice is the same type of globe that came out.
