Expert Review

Expert Review
If your Buffalo bain marie has suddenly stopped working, don't panic. More often than not, the on/off switch is the culprit after plenty of daily use. It's a common wear-and-tear part. Thankfully, this genuine replacement is a straightforward swap for a competent person, getting your unit back to holding temperature in no time.
Installation & Maintenance
- Always disconnect the appliance from the mains power first.
- Photograph wire connections before removing the old switch.
- Carefully unclip the old switch from the front panel.
- Keep the switch area clean and free from grease buildup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this switch compatible with other Buffalo products?
A: No, this switch is specifically designed for the Buffalo CD231 and CD232 bain maries only.
Q: Can I fit this part myself?
A: While replacement is straightforward for those with technical experience, we always recommend that any electrical work is performed by a qualified engineer for safety.
Q: How do I know my current switch has failed?
A: Common signs include the unit not turning on, the switch feeling loose, or it not clicking firmly into the 'on' or 'off' positions.
