2 reviews for Mercury 4000 Side Mount Remote Control 881170A15
Trailered this to a remote lake and mounted the 881170A15 on my Mercury 35hp setup—quick and simple with the included hardware. The side-mount design saves console space, and the 8-pin plug ensured no electrical gremlins. Trim and throttle sync perfectly for 25 mph runs, with the horn providing solid safety. Stainless components look sharp and hold up to abuse—Mercury’s durability in a compact package!”
Upgraded the control on our family pontoon with a 2015 Mercury 150hp, and the 4000 series shines for casual cruising. Easy bolt-on install, and the right-hand lever is intuitive for my wife to use. Power trim handles the load effortlessly, and the harness is flexible for routing. Only gripe: the warning horn is a bit shrill up close, but it works great for alerts. Reliable and efficient—best for weekend warriors.
