On any engineered system containing sub components, potentially faulty sub-components will be covered within the agreed warranty period (12 months from date of despatch to customer). Any labour required and supplied by MCW to replace these components will be charged at an agreed rate.
The warranty status of any returned product is determined at the sole discretion of Motor Control Warehouse and/or their suppliers after inspection and testing of the product.

Returns & Replacements
A ‘return’ is described as a product that was incorrectly ordered by the customer.

For each package being returned, please include the GRN number on the packing slip and on the outside of the package so it can be clearly identified.
Note: Goods being returned without a GRN will not be accepted.
Returns are only accepted with the prior agreement of MCW. A restocking/handling fee of 40% of the original net cost may be applied. This will be at the discretion of MCW.
Returns will only be accepted provided the goods are received back in their original package and in an unused condition within 30 days of despatch.

Refunds will be made to the payment method chosen at the time of the order being placed.
