Cross-reference part number 7-164-09GT against your GTH-1056 parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your machine before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Manufactured to the original specification for the GTH-1056, delivering the same electrical characteristics and dimensional fit as the factory-installed switch.
- Direct Replacement — Connects and installs in the same position as the original switch, with no modification to wiring or mounting hardware required.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for the Genie GTH-1056 telehandler; always cross-reference part number 7-164-09GT with your parts manual to confirm applicability to your serial range.
- Restores Differential Lock Function — A failed or faulty differential lock switch prevents the operator from engaging or disengaging the differential lock, limiting traction control on uneven or soft ground. Replacing it restores full operator control.
- Operational Safety — The differential lock is a traction and stability feature on the telehandler. A correctly functioning switch ensures the operator can engage and release the lock as site conditions demand, supporting safe and confident machine operation.
The differential lock switch signals the machine's system to engage or disengage the differential lock on the drive axle, allowing the operator to improve traction when working on loose, soft, or uneven terrain. When the switch fails, the differential lock may become inoperative or stuck in one state, reducing the operator's ability to adapt to changing ground conditions. Replacing a worn or faulty switch with the correct OEM part restores predictable, reliable control of this function.
