4055843249 Genuine Lighting Switch for Electrolux Group Appliances, Light On Off Switch Replacement

When an appliance light won't turn on, or its switch has cracked or stopped clicking, genuine Electrolux lighting switch 4055843249 could be the fix. It is the switch that controls the light circuit. We don't have the appliance type or a model list on file for it, so check the number on the old switch and compare its shape, terminals and mounting before you order.

Light not working? Check the globe before the switch

Switches in appliances wear out like any other part. The contacts burn or oxidise, springs weaken and plastic buttons crack. When the light switch fails, the light may not come on at all, flicker as you press it, or only work when the button is held at an angle. Before buying a switch, try a new globe or check the LED module, because a dead lamp is the more common cause. If the lamp is fine and power reaches the switch, the switch is the likely culprit.

Replacing the switch

Isolate the power at the wall before taking any covers off. Take a clear photo of the wires on the old switch, then move them across to the same terminals on the new one. Make sure the switch clicks fully into its mounting so it can't push back into the housing. Restore power and test the light. Hard wired appliances should be done by a licensed electrician.
