Parts Lists and Schematics

Trace the listed factory numbers across MX-5050 models with the service-parts finder →

When ordering parts, the part number must be specified.

Components which do not have part numbers should be specified by a reference number.

Concerning components on the printed circuit boards, those which have part numbers should be specified by their respective part number, and those which do not have part numbers should be specified either by their assembly name or reference numbers.

NOTE

The part numbers in parenthesis are included in the assembly numbers indicated in the "Notes" next to "Part No.", therefore, those parts must be specified by the assembly numbers.

10-1 SAFETY COMPONENTS↑ TOP

For safe operation, components specified by the symbol ⚠, in the circuit diagram, must not be replaced with ones of a different type. These safety components are also listed on Table 10-1.
