Craftsman 1619x04172 Switch Key

Product Description

The CRAFTSMAN 1619x04172 is a replacement switch key designed for use in Craftsman lawn and garden equipment. This keyed safety switch component serves as the operator-presence or ignition-enabling device that allows the equipment's electrical system to complete the start circuit. Without a functioning switch key, the machine will not start, making this a direct-replacement part when the original key is lost, damaged, or worn. Licensed technicians and experienced DIYers handling outdoor power equipment service will find this a straightforward component swap.

This switch key is used in Craftsman lawn and garden applications, including riding mowers and similar outdoor power equipment that rely on a keyed ignition or safety interlock switch. It is suited for residential equipment servicing where the original key must be replaced to restore normal operation. Installation typically falls within the scope of a small-engine technician or a knowledgeable equipment owner.
