Signs it has failed

Check before you buy

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

  1. Isolate the hood at the spur or breaker
  2. Remove the filters and open the control housing
  3. Photograph the wiring and disconnect the old switch
  4. Fit the new switch and reconnect
  5. 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.

Check your model number first. It is on the rating plate — usually inside the door frame, on the back or side panel, or inside the appliance. Parts that look identical often differ by model, so match the number to the listing before you order.
