Quicksilver 8M0178526 Side Mount Remote Control Box No Trim 15ft Harness

The Quicksilver 8M0178526 (supersedes OEM part number 881170A3) is a genuine OEM side mount remote control box designed for Mercury and Mariner outboard engines. This control is specifically the non-power trim variant, making it the correct choice for outboard applications that do not use an integrated power trim and tilt system.

Key Features:

• Side mount design — mounts conveniently near the helm for easy throttle and shift access
• 15-foot wiring harness — provides ample reach from the helm to the outboard engine
• Built-in warning horn — audible alerts for engine protection
• Non-power trim handle — designed for engines without integral power trim
• 8-pin connector — standard Mercury Gen I wiring configuration
• Push-to-choke throttle function — 3-position control for neutral, forward, and reverse
• Smooth forward and reverse engagement — lever moves forward from neutral to engage forward gear, and back from neutral for reverse
• OEM Quicksilver quality — genuine Mercury Marine part for reliable, long-lasting performance

This remote control replaces legacy part number 881170A3 and is sold as a complete assembly. A separate ignition/choke assembly and throttle/shift cables are required for full installation. Refer to your engine's serial number to confirm compatibility before ordering.
