4055563482 Genuine R-Fit Switch Washer for Electrolux Group Gas Cooktops, Replacement Cooktop Switch Washer

Part 4055563482 is a genuine Electrolux switch washer, listed as an R-fit type, for Electrolux group cooktops. Small washers like this are easy to lose or damage when a switch or control is taken out, and the right one helps the switch sit correctly in the panel. We don't hold dimensions or a model list for it, so check that 4055563482 appears on your cooktop's parts list, or send us the model number through the parts enquiry form.

Why small fittings matter in a cooktop repair

Switches on a cooktop are held and spaced by small fittings such as washers, clips and screws. When a washer is missing or crushed, the switch can sit at the wrong depth, move when the knob is turned, or fail to line up with the knob opening, which makes the control feel loose or rub. These parts often go missing during cleaning or repairs. A hardware store washer is rarely a good substitute, because the thickness and inside diameter need to be right for the switch to sit as designed.

Fitting the washer

Isolate the cooktop's power and turn off the gas before removing any controls. Note the order of every washer, spacer and nut as they come off, then refit the new washer in the same place. Work behind the control panel on a gas cooktop should be done by a licensed gas fitter, and hard-wired units by a licensed electrician.
