CAT 262-1408 is a control group that Caterpillar lists as discontinued. For a buyer maintaining older equipment, the first question is whether the offered unit is the original reference or a proposed replacement. Ask the supplier to state that clearly on the quotation.
The official catalogue includes wheel loaders such as 962H, 966H and 972H, along with several other equipment families. That broad listing does not confirm a match for every machine carrying one of those model names.
Have the machine serial information checked before approving an alternative. A replacement number needs a documented relationship to your configuration; a similar housing is not enough.
Send the existing label and connector photographs when asking about 262-1408 availability. Confirm the condition of the actual item offered. The CAT parts catalogue provides other references, but they are not automatically substitutes for this discontinued group.
