A control and signaling unit or a signaling unit having a light-emitting element, made up of a front element and a mounting adapter for locking the functional elements into place. This is achieved in that only one light-emitting diode having a diode crown and connecting wires are integrated in the functional element, the diode crown being embedded and retained in a receptacle, the light-emitting diode having an angle of radiation of 30-45.degree.. The light-emitting diode has a luminosity of at least 0.5 candela, and an electronic circuit is arranged on circuit conductors, secured to the inner housing wall of a housing half and applied using a foil heat-embossing process. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION An object of the present invention is to devise a control and signaling unit, or a signaling unit, having a light-emitting element, which is inexpensive and uncomplicated to manufacture. The present invention provides a control and signaling unit or a signaling unit having a light-emitting element, comprised of a front element and a mounting adapter for locking the functional elements into place, characterized in that only one light-emitting diode (3), including a diode crown (5) and connecting wires (4), is intergrated in the functional element (2), the diode crown (5) being embedded and retained in a receptacle (6), that the light-emitting diode (3) has an angle of radiation of 30-45. degree. , that the light-emitting diode (3) has a luminosity of at least 0. 5 candela, and that an electronic circuit is arranged on circuit conductors (11) secured to the inner housing wall of a housing half (1) and applied using a foil heat-embossing process.
