Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: This switch is most commonly needed when the ignition switch on a Steyr engine control panel has failed, become intermittent, or been physically damaged. It’s a direct OEM replacement for a wide range of Steyr M-series engine applications — the broad compatibility list makes it a useful stock item for Steyr engine service operations.
Common Questions: Customers sometimes ask whether any red push-button switch of the same size will work — for engine control panel applications, we recommend using the correct OEM part to ensure the right electrical rating, connector fit, and panel mounting compatibility. Also worth noting: this is a Steyr Motors part number, not a Volvo Penta part, so confirm the brand against your engine before ordering if you’re unsure.
