4055921573 Genuine Halogen Lamp 12V 20W Low Voltage Globe for Electrolux Rangehood Lighting

4055921573 is a genuine Electrolux 12V, 20W halogen lamp. Low voltage halogens like this are typically used to light the cooktop from a rangehood, and they run from a small transformer rather than straight off 240V. Before ordering, pull your old globe and check it's marked 12V and 20W, and that its pins look the same as the one in the photo. If they match, 4055921573 is the right replacement.

Rangehood light not working? Start with the halogen globe

Rangehood lights cop steam, grease and heat from the cooktop below, and halogen capsules don't last forever in that spot. When one light goes out and the others still work, the globe is the likely cause. If every light is out at once, look at the light switch, the transformer that supplies the 12V, or the wiring before buying a handful of globes. A blackened capsule or a broken filament confirms a dead lamp. Fitting a globe with a different voltage or wattage isn't a good idea, so stick with 12V and 20W.

Changing a low voltage halogen globe

Turn the rangehood off at the wall or isolate it at the switchboard, then let the light cool, as halogens run very hot. Remove the lens or light cover. Pull the old globe straight out and push the new one in, holding it in a cloth so your fingers stay off the glass. Refit the cover and test the light.
