What it is
The Ideal 171246 is a rear cover supplied for the standard control panel on Ideal Commercial appliances. It forms the back section of the control panel casing assembly, closing off the rear of the panel so the internal wiring and controls are shielded from dust, knocks and general handling damage. It is a casing component rather than a gas-carrying part, and it is listed under the alternative number 85558520.
Signs this part needs replacing
- The rear cover is bent, dented or distorted so it no longer sits flush against the control panel.
- Corrosion or heavy surface rust along the panel edges, typically where the cover meets the casing.
- Cracked or split metal around the fixing points, leaving the cover loose or unable to be secured.
- Missing or sheared fixings that allow the cover to rattle or drop away from the panel.
- Exposed wiring or control components at the rear of the panel because the cover is damaged or absent.
Before you order
- Check the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list to confirm this cover suits your control panel variant.
- Confirm the number on the existing part or in the appliance documentation matches 171246 or 85558520 before ordering.
- Inspect the fixings and any seals around the control panel at the same time, as these are often disturbed when the cover is removed.
