Looking Up Product by Application

Year / Make / Model Lookup

One of the most common ways to look up parts is via a traditional Year/Make/Model application lookup.

Within autoecat, the main landing page starts you off in this process by presenting a listing of available vehicle make year options. You can make selections through the Year/Make/Model process by using your mouse to scroll and click the option, or simply begin typing as the cursor begins in the field above your current selection criteria.

Selecting a year will then present you with the available makes for that year, and selecting a make will present you with a listing of the available models.

As you progress through the selection, the boxes will stay visible so that you may go back and make corrections if needed. 

As you move through the selection box, your breadcrumb bar will also show you your selection and provide a quick way to go back to modifying your vehicle selection if necessary

Each of the Year/Make/Model are active links that will take you back to the corresponding selection page.

Looking up by VIN

If you have a VIN from the vehicle, you can enter it into our VIN decoder and have autoecat determine the correct Year/Make/Model

Filling the VIN code in will take you the product type screen with the proper vehicle information selected

Using the FastApp Search

Another option to look up products is via our FastApp search. This allows you to simply type in the information you need, and autoecat determines the vehicle and/or product type.

The above example will take you directly to the engine selection for Shocks/Struts on a 2007 Ford Fusion, with no other clicking or selections required.

Selecting a Product Type

Once you have selected a Year/Make/Model, you will most likely be presented with our 'Multiple Search Screen'. This screen allows you to pick the product types you are looking for.

There are a number of options within this screen to select product. 

Selecting an Engine

Once the base vehicle and product type information is selected, you may be asked to validate the engine size of the vehicle you are looking up.
