Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this kill switch fits my Yamaha engine?
A: This switch is designed for Yamaha 2-Stroke outboards from 6HP to 40HP, manufactured between 1984 and 1998. To guarantee fitment, compare your original part's appearance and part number to those listed: 6E9-82575-02-00, 6E9-82575-00-00, 6E9-82575-01-00, or Sierra 18-65450.
Q: How does the safety lanyard work?
A: The coiled lanyard attaches to the operator (e.g., wrist or life vest) and clips onto the kill switch. If the operator moves too far from the helm or falls overboard, the lanyard pulls the clip from the switch, which immediately cuts engine power. This is a critical safety feature that prevents a runaway boat.
Q: Is this a genuine Yamaha part?
A: This is an aftermarket replacement part, not an OEM component. It has been manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function, providing a reliable and cost-effective alternative.
Q: How fast do you ship and how much does it cost?
A: We offer fast global shipping—typically 5–15 days worldwide—and standard shipping is free. Expedited options are available at checkout depending on your location.
Q: What is your warranty and return policy?
A: This product includes a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If something goes wrong, contact our support team with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard return window (unused & in original condition); please see our policy page or reach out for instructions.
