Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this fits my counter-rotation Yamaha engine?

Check the compatibility table for your specific model (e.g., L150, LZ150, LF200) and year. This anode is specifically designed for Yamaha 150-200 HP counter-rotation outboards from 1987-2024 and directly replaces OEM part numbers 6K1-45371-01 and 6K1-45371-02.

How often should I replace my trim tab anode?

You should inspect your anode regularly (at least annually) and replace it when it appears to be 50% corroded. This ensures your outboard motor's metal components remain protected from galvanic corrosion.

What are the signs of a worn or failing trim tab anode?

A completely corroded, missing, or heavily pitted anode is a clear sign it needs immediate replacement. You may also notice accelerated corrosion on other metal parts of your engine's lower unit, such as the propeller or gearcase housing.
