Help me identify part

DarkZero:
When i search for this part number i get no meaningfull results guess its a old transistor but i need specs in order to replace it
capt bullshot:
There's no BCxxx transistor starting with two digit number, so it might be a BC174 (but these don't have the -40 suffix, rather A/B/C), so it isn't the BC174, same with the BC274, then we have a BC373-40 (but no BC374), no BC474, no BC574, 674, 774, 874

There's a BCX74-40 made by Siemens, I guess this one is right, since there's some kind of X top left. Normally transistors of this vintage are marked with the full type number, just a bit scrambled ;)

So its data: NPN, 45V Uceo, 800mA, 625mW,
-40 indicates beta in the ballpark of 400.
BCX types are usually fast switching bipolar transistors.

Let me give u some more info my dentist friend that does my teeth for free has these modules that die yearly that drive a pump now the service guys plugs in a new one and charges him a small fortune so he gave me couple of non working ones and i found that on all 5 this transistor is shorted so the malfunction repeats. I want to try and repair it so i can say thx to my friend for fixing my teeth free of charge. Besides this electronic module looks super simple.
Rigolon:
I believe capt bullshot is right, since that symbol on the right side of the X mark was used by Siemens back then.

I would try getting some equivalent transistors and using them to see if it's a match.
