Part 4055578910 is the genuine Electrolux group on\/off switch listed for Electrolux and Westinghouse clothes dryers, including the EDV505, EDV605, EDV5552, EDV6552, WDV5051 and WDV6051. The same switch is linked to the older numbers 0534200178, 0534300042 and 0534300050, so any of those printed on your old switch or parts list points here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElectrolux or Westinghouse dryer won't start? Check the power switch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower passes through the on\/off switch before it reaches the timer, the drum motor and the heater. Pressing the button closes a set of contacts inside the switch, and pressing it again opens them. Those contacts wear and pit with use, and the push mechanism can crack or stop latching. The usual signs are a dryer that does nothing at all even though the power point works, a button that has to be held in or jiggled before the drum turns, or a dryer that starts one day and not the next. A switch body that looks melted or brown around the terminals has overheated and needs replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 4055578910\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinked to 0534200178, 0534300042, 0534300050 and 8581330302002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn\/off power switch for clothes dryers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for 64 dryer models, including the Electrolux EDV and Westinghouse WDV ranges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the dryer power switch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePull the dryer plug out of the wall before you open the control panel or lift the top cover.
