What the inspection should establish

46i7 checks the pedal/plate weld. The manufacturer assessed the mechanism on a bench after a supplier’s welding-problem report. Connection quality, not rubber-pad appearance, determines this repair branch.

When the pedal is replaced

The remedy inspects the weld and replaces the complete pedal if improper. It does not prescribe independent rewelding. Name the connection condition and work performed; brakes OK alone cannot confirm this specific inspection.
