Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my engine?
Verify your sterndrive model is listed (e.g., Alpha One Gen II, Bravo). The most reliable method is to cross-reference the part number from your old sender with the numbers listed in our cross-reference table, such as 805320A03.
What are the signs of a faulty trim sender?
Common symptoms include an inaccurate or non-responsive trim gauge on your dashboard, or the sterndrive trimming up too far because the limit switch is not engaging. This can result in the drive being trimmed beyond its safe operating range.
Will this kit work with a SmartCraft system?
No, this trim sender kit is not compatible with MerCruiser SmartCraft digital systems. It is intended for standard analog gauge systems.
