Working with the Parts List

The parts list gives you detailed information about each part in an illustration. To see a parts list:

  1. Enter a VIN or manually select a Lineup, Model Type, and Catalog.
  2. Select a Section.
  3. Click on a Figure caption or thumbnail, depending on your Navigation Style settings.
  4. The parts list will appear on the right half of the side-by-side display:

The specific information displayed in the parts list depends on the selected catalog.

Filtering the Parts List

When you enter a VIN, EQ-Hit automatically hides parts that do not match. If you have not entered a VIN, or have turned VIN filtering off, you can still filter parts by selecting one of the Applied Model Definition buttons above the parts list:

The parts list will then display only the parts that apply to that model, and will highlight the applied model.

Tip: You can select more than one Applied Model Definition button.

Note: a few catalogs (Hino/Nissan joint ventures) work differently. In these vehicles, a single FIG may have dozens of separate illustrations, with all parts for that FIG shown on each illustration, rather than filtered by illustration, and with no Applied Model buttons. In these catalogs, use the Type to narrow field described below.

Find a Specific Part

Type text in the Type to narrow field above the parts list to filter the parts list so that only parts containing that text are displayed.
