The Bomag 38051798 Starter Switch is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 24 R and C 560 B pneumatic tyred rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter switch delivers an exact match to the original part in form, function, and electrical specification — no guesswork on compatibility. This part is confirmed to fit the BW 24 R and C 560 B, making it the straightforward replacement choice for operators and service technicians working on these machines.
Key Features
- Correct Electrical Specification — genuine OEM construction ensures proper ignition circuit resistance and switching behavior matched to Bomag's original design for pneumatic tyred rollers
- Direct OEM Replacement — connects to the existing wiring harness and mounts to the original position, restoring the operator station to factory condition
- Verified Fitment — confirmed for BW 24 R and C 560 B pneumatic tyred rollers using Bomag part number 38051798
- Ignition System Integrity — a faulty starter switch can cause intermittent starts, no-crank conditions, or unintended engine shutdowns; replacing it promptly keeps the machine responding correctly to operator inputs
- Electrical Safety — an OEM-spec starter switch ensures proper circuit isolation at shutdown, reducing the risk of unintended engine engagement during service or maintenance
The starter switch is the operator-controlled electrical component that initiates and terminates the engine's ignition and cranking circuit. When the switch is turned, it completes the circuit between the battery and the starter motor, allowing the engine to crank and start. A worn or failed starter switch can result in failure to start, intermittent starting problems, or an inability to shut the engine down cleanly — any of which can bring compaction work to a halt and create unsafe operating conditions. Replacing a degraded switch with a genuine Bomag part restores predictable, reliable control over the machine's ignition system.
