    They seem to have dropped the 503 – 504 digit numbers to numbers ending CO ?

    Hi

    As you can see from the attached it’s no different for me I’m afraid.


    Are you using Connect with an online account?

    They seem to have replaced many manufacturers numbers with their own. Could this be to stop cross referencing?
    Just look at Bosch or Hotpoint parts.

    Not for our account either Don!

    It’s a right PITA to do any sort of cross reference of part numbers,Iv’e also let my feelings known to our rep(not as that will change anything).

    Odd that some are seeing the 503 504 prefix part numbers and others are getting the shorter numbers ending CO
    Evidently according to sales they say it’s a new system?
    What it amounts to is cross referencing is taking longer to do but it’s still doable and if this has been done to stop cross reference then there lays another story

    Did you manage to find out why it was changed ? And it then appears they can implement this account by account
