2179293-5 is currently identified in public parts sources as a Steyr Motors red ignition switch assembly rather than a Volvo Penta part number. Current references describe it as a red On/Off push-button ignition switch assembly with a silver ring, supplied for Steyr engine control panel applications. If you are matching by part number, 2179293-5 should be treated as a Steyr control-panel electrical part unless your serial-number-based lookup shows a brand-specific crossover.

Serial Number Fitment Notice
Control-panel electrical parts can vary by panel version, engine package, and production range. Confirm part number 2179293-5 against the exact engine serial number and control-panel parts breakdown before ordering, especially if the panel has had prior switch or harness replacement. The current public part trail supports this number under Steyr Motors, so brand verification is important before cataloging or ordering.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace this switch assembly when the push-button no longer actuates cleanly, the switch fails to power the panel correctly, the button is physically damaged, or corrosion and wear have affected reliable On/Off function. It is also a sensible replacement when troubleshooting an intermittent panel-control issue tied to the ignition switch itself.
Installation Notes
Verify the panel application and part number before installation. Current NSN and product references describe this as a push-button ignition switch assembly used in Steyr control panels, so matching by exact part number and panel configuration is the safest approach. Inspect the connector and surrounding harness condition at the same time to avoid replacing the switch while leaving a damaged connection in place.
Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers
Current public references consistently show 2179293-5 as the active identifier. Broader NSN references also show the no-dash formatting 21792935 as an alternate representation of the same number.
Parts Desk Insight
This is the kind of part number that can get mislabeled when brands overlap in marine inventory systems. Matching the exact panel and manufacturer first is usually much safer than assuming every red ignition switch assembly is interchangeable.
