FAQ
What exactly is the purpose/function of this component?
Within the corresponding assembly, the component performs a structural, sealing, guiding, or connecting function. The exact function is determined by its installation location and the system-specific exploded view drawing.
How can you identify a defect or typical symptoms?
Defects usually manifest as play, leakage, corrosion, dimensional deviations, assembly problems, or loss of function in the adjacent assembly. Without precise identification, the assessment must always be based on the installation situation and a comparison with the old part.
How do you inspect or test the component?
The component’s condition, dimensions, surfaces, fits, damage, and conformity with the removed part are inspected. Depending on the design, visual inspection, dimensional inspection, leak testing, or basic electrical testing may also be performed.
When should it be replaced?
The component should be replaced if there is visible damage, corrosion, wear, loss of function, or whenever the manufacturer specifies it as a single-use part. Preventive replacement is particularly advisable for sealing and wear parts.
How do you check compatibility?
Key factors include the OEM number, exploded view, installation position, dimensions, connector or wiring diagram, material, and left/right or top/bottom orientation. The part number alone is not always sufficient when switching between variants.
