Hotpoint Cooker Hood Control Switch
The button or slider that controls the fan speeds and the light.
Signs it has failed
- Fan speeds that do not change
- The light or fan does not respond to the switch
- A broken or loose button
- Intermittent operation
Check before you buy
- Check the isolator and the fuse
- Press each button and listen for a click
- Test the switch for continuity in each position
What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your cooker hood and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).
How to replace it
- Isolate the hood at the spur or breaker
- Remove the filters and open the control housing
- Photograph the wiring and disconnect the old switch
- Fit the new switch and reconnect
- Refit the cover and test every speed
Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.
Getting the right part
Switches vary by number of speeds and terminal layout. This is mains wiring: if you are not confident, use a qualified electrician.
