Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium high-performance aftermarket replacement part from the Edge series, manufactured to exceed OEM standards for durability and efficiency.
How do I know if it is compatible?
We recommend checking your original part for the "897977" prefix. If your control box is a standard Mercury/Mariner style with a 10-32 thread at the engine end, this is the correct cable.
Will this fit a Mercury Gen II control box?
No. Gen II control boxes require a Gen II specific cable (typically part number series 8M00825XX). This cable is for Gen I applications only.
