The Vent Switch is an OEM replacement part for Bosch range hoods. It is an electronic control device located inside the range hood that regulates the internal vent and fan functions.

Causes of a faulty vent switch can include long-term use in high-heat cooking environments, damage from accidental spills or impacts, or normal component degradation over time.

Symptoms include:

  • Failure of the fan or vents to engage during cooking  
  • Variable or inconsistent fan speeds that don't adequately vent smoke
  • Electrical shorting or sparking noises from within the hood control unit

This genuine Bosch replacement part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore range hood models.

Jfs for Model Number Thermador RDDS30VQB S/N 98080131

The button on the down vent panel on top of this dual-fuel stove/oven is frozen in the down position. The "down-draft" panel w/ filters is currently in the down position & will not rise. Prior to this problem everything worked well. Is it possibly a frozen switch? With the unit "stuck" in the down position, how do I raise the panel in order to gain access to the switch assembly? My local Thermador dealer said the switch part# = 414538. Is this the same as the Bosch # 2825671 ? Thank you for your help !

Answer

Hello JFS. You will access the switch under the unit and sometimes these have to be manually raise when the cover is removed. When you remove the cover under the unit, you should be able to see if you will need to raise the vent manually. Some of these can be replaced without raising the vent. 00414538 is the part number you provided. 2825671 is not a good part number.
