Missing a lamp cover on your rangehood? Part 4055540233 is the genuine light diffuser used across a wide range of Westinghouse and Chef rangehoods. It's listed for Westinghouse models such as the WRH608IS, WRJ600US and WRR604SB, plus hoods in the RRE, RHN, RFD and REHR series like the RRE634S. Some older listings show the number E610037.

Why a rangehood light diffuser is worth replacing

The diffuser sits over the rangehood lamp, spreading the light evenly across the cooktop and keeping grease and steam off the globe and its holder. Heat from the lamp and from cooking can make it brittle over the years, and diffusers often crack or snap their clips when someone removes them to change a globe. Without one, the bare globe glares, grease builds up on the lamp holder and the light can fail sooner. A replacement diffuser tidies up the underside of the hood and protects the lighting.

Fitting the new diffuser

Switch the rangehood off and allow the light to cool, as the globe gets hot. Ease the old diffuser out gently, noting how its tabs or clips locate in the hood. Check the globe while you're there. Line up the new diffuser and press it in until it sits flush and secure. If the hood is hard-wired and the lamp holder needs work, call a licensed electrician.

Questions about this part

Is this the same diffuser on 60cm and 90cm hoods?

It's listed for both widths in several ranges, for example the WRJ600US and the WRJ900US. Check your model number on the label inside the hood, usually visible once the filters are out, and match it against the fit list.
