4055548822 Genuine Pyrolytic Oven Lamp G9 25W 240V Halogen Halopin Globe for Electrolux Ovens

Genuine Electrolux lamp 4055548822 is a 25W, 240V halogen globe with a G9 pin base, made for pyrolytic ovens. It's the Halopin style, a small capsule with two looped pins that push straight into the holder. Pyrolytic ovens get far hotter during the self-clean cycle than in normal cooking, so the lamp has to be built for that duty. Use 4055548822 wherever your oven currently runs a 25W G9 globe.

Pyrolytic oven light out? Here is what to check

Inside a self-cleaning oven the light has a tough life, sitting in the cavity through everyday baking and the much hotter pyrolytic clean. Halogen capsules eventually give up from that heat cycling, and the light simply stops coming on. Pull the old capsule and look for a broken filament or glass that has turned dark or blistered. If the globe looks fine, the fault may be the lamp holder, the switch or a loose connection rather than the lamp. A globe that isn't meant for pyro heat tends to fail early, so stick with a lamp made for the job.

Changing a G9 lamp in a pyrolytic oven

Isolate the oven at the wall or switchboard and wait until it's stone cold. Remove the lamp cover, then pull the old capsule straight out of the holder without twisting. Hold the new halogen with a clean cloth or glove, because skin oil on the glass shortens its life. Push it fully in, refit the cover and its seal, then test the light.

Questions about this part

Can I use a standard G9 globe from the hardware store?

Only if it's rated for oven temperatures. Many household G9 globes aren't, and they won't last long in a pyrolytic oven. This lamp is made for that job, at 25W and 240V.
