Wacker Neuson 5100013570 Ignition Switch

The Wacker Neuson 5100013570 is a genuine OEM Ignition Switch designed for the RC50, RC70, and RC110 single-drum soil compactor series and the full RD-series tandem roller lineup, spanning the RD18, RD24, RD27, RD28, RD40, and RD45 families. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through Wacker Neuson's parts program, the 5100013570 meets the same specifications as the switch installed at the factory, ensuring consistent fitment across an extensive range of compaction equipment configurations. Compatibility covers cab, ROPS, DPF, open-station, combination, and US-market variants within those families, making this one of the most broadly applicable ignition components in the Wacker Neuson compaction equipment lineup. Verify your machine's model and serial number against the fitment list before ordering to confirm the 5100013570 is the correct switch for your unit.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Electrical Spec: — Matched to Wacker Neuson's original switching circuit design, ensuring correct contact resistance and keyed position sequencing for safe, reliable engine starts.
• Broad Compactor and Roller Compatibility: — Fits RC50, RC70, and RC110 single-drum soil compactors alongside RD18, RD24, RD27, RD28, RD40, and RD45 tandem rollers across cab, ROPS, open, DPF, and combination configurations.
• Drop-In Replacement: — Engineered to the same mounting interface and connector layout as the original switch, allowing direct installation without reworking the wiring harness or switch housing.
• Protects Starting System Integrity: — A worn or intermittent ignition switch can cause hard-starts, unexpected shutdowns, or failure to energize the starter circuit; replacing it restores consistent electrical control of the engine start sequence.
• Electrical Safety Assurance: — An OEM-specification switch maintains proper circuit isolation between key positions, reducing the risk of unintended cranking or energized circuits when the machine is at rest.

The ignition switch is the primary operator-controlled electrical component that powers the machine's start, run, and shutdown circuits. When the key is turned, the switch routes current to the starter motor, fuel system, and instrument panel in the correct sequence, and cuts power cleanly when the operator shuts the machine down. On large compaction equipment like the RC and RD series, a failing ignition switch commonly presents as intermittent starting, a machine that won't crank, or one that loses instrument power during operation. Replacing the switch with a genuine OEM unit restores proper circuit control and helps ensure the machine responds predictably to operator inputs at every key position.
