Checking your existing part to see if it has a part number

Most spare parts will have been assigned a part number when they were manufactured. This helps to identify the exact part and its specification. When sourcing spare parts from anyone its always good practice to see if you can locate the part number from your existing part. You’ll have to look closely as they can sometimes be in hard to find places.
