IKEA 138684: Hand Control Switch for BEKANT Sit/Stand Desk
Product Details
Is your BEKANT sit/stand desk unresponsive? If the motor system seems fine but you can no longer raise or lower the desk, the issue often lies with the control switch. Part 138684 is the official manual hand control that mounts under the tabletop. It allows you to operate the motorized columns to adjust your working position. It is the essential user interface for your ergonomic desk.

Installation
Positioning: Place the 138684 module under the tabletop, generally to the right or left depending on your preference (use the pre-drilled holes on the BEKANT tabletop or suitable wood screws).
Fixing: Screw the housing to the tabletop. Ensure it is flush with the desk edge so the buttons are easily accessible without being obtrusive.
Connection: Connect the module's cable to one of the free ports located on the top of the motorized leg (column), as shown in the technical diagram.
Safety Key: You must insert the safety key (the small connector with a ring) into the jack on the control box. Note: The desk will not operate without this key inserted.
Initialization: Once everything is connected, perform a system reset: press and hold the Up and Down buttons simultaneously for at least 10 seconds, until you hear a signal or see a slight movement. The desk is now ready.
