What it is
The Ideal 176298 is a short bus lead supplied for Ideal Commercial appliances. It forms part of the internal wiring loom, carrying the low-voltage communication signal between electronic control components inside the appliance. The lead is supplied as a short-length assembly, which suits installations where the control boards sit close together and a longer harness would need to be dressed back.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Fault codes or lockouts linked to communication between control boards
- Intermittent operation that clears when the wiring loom is disturbed
- Visible damage to the lead, such as chafing, a crushed section or a broken conductor
- Loose, corroded or heat-damaged terminals at either plug end
- A connector that no longer clips positively into its socket
Before you order
- Confirm the appliance model and, where available, the serial number against the compatibility list before ordering
- Check the existing lead against the alternative number 1180389 to be sure you are matching the correct item
- Isolate the electrical supply to the appliance before removing or refitting any wiring
- Inspect the mating sockets for damage while the lead is removed, as a worn socket can cause the same fault to return
