As a direct OEM replacement, this switch is produced to the same specification as the original, ensuring it installs and operates exactly as intended. Cross-reference part number 56.0017.0145GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct switch for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Integrity — Manufactured to the original specification, this switch delivers the correct electrical switching action and keyed operation without adaptation.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Designed as an exact replacement for the GTH-1256 and GTH-1544, this switch drops into the original mounting position with no rework required.
- Telehandler-Specific Fitment — Confirmed for the Genie GTH-1256 and GTH-1544 telehandlers, keeping your machine running with the right OEM component.
- Restored Road Light Control — A failed or faulty key switch can leave the road lighting circuit inoperable. Replacing it with this OEM part restores proper operator control of the road lights.
- Operational Compliance — Road lighting is a regulatory requirement when transiting a GTH telehandler on public roads. A functioning road light key switch keeps the machine compliant and road-legal.
The road light key switch controls the activation of the road-transit lighting fitted to the telehandler, allowing the operator to switch the lights on and off from the cab. When this switch fails or becomes intermittent, the road lights may stop responding to operator input, which can create a compliance issue when the machine is traveling between sites on public roads. Replacing a worn or faulty switch with the correct OEM part restores dependable control and keeps the lighting circuit operating as designed.
