The Genie 218155GT is a genuine OEM Locking Keyswitch, 3 Position, with Key built for Genie SX telescopic boom lifts and Z and ZX articulating boom lifts, including the SX-150, SX-180, SX-135 XC, SX-125 XC, ZX-135/70, and Z-80/60. As a direct OEM replacement, this keyswitch meets Genie's original design and material specifications, so it installs correctly without adaptation. Cross-reference part number 218155GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right switch for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's original specifications, ensuring correct switching action, contact resistance, and key retention across all three positions.
- Three-Position Locking Design — The locking mechanism holds the switch securely in each selected position, preventing unintended movement during operation.
- Includes Key — Supplied with the keyed insert, so the switch is ready to install without sourcing a separate key.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting footprint and electrical interface, fitting the listed SX, ZX, and Z series boom lifts without modification.
- Operational Safety — A correctly functioning keyswitch is the primary means of controlling machine power and preventing unauthorized starts on aerial boom lifts; a worn or failed switch can compromise this control, making prompt replacement critical.
A keyswitch is the machine's primary power-control device, allowing the operator to select between off, ground-control, and platform-control positions — or similar operating modes — by turning and locking the key. When the switch is functioning correctly, it reliably routes control authority to the right station and keeps the machine secure when unattended. A worn or faulty keyswitch can cause intermittent power loss, failure to start, or loss of the lock function that prevents unauthorized use, all of which affect safe operation. Replacing a failed switch with the correct OEM part restores the original control behavior and keeps the machine operating as Genie designed it.
