What risks should I check before replacing RS-1210K1002FT?

Before replacing, verify that the substitute's tolerance is ±1% or better and the Temperature Coefficient (TCR) is ±100ppm/°C or better. Using a part with a wider tolerance (e.g., ±5%) or unknown TCR can impact circuit accuracy and stability.
