Product Details

Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the boat battery before beginning electrical work.
  2. Locate the existing trim relay and compare its shape, terminals, markings, and mounting arrangement with the replacement.
  3. Photograph or label the wire positions before disconnecting the original relay.
  4. Disconnect the electrical terminals from the old relay.
  5. Remove any fasteners or brackets securing the old relay.
  6. Install the replacement relay in the same position, provided the terminal layout and mounting arrangement match.
  7. Reconnect each wire to the corresponding terminal. Do not force a connection or alter the wiring to make an incompatible relay fit.
  8. Reconnect the battery and test trim operation in both directions.
  9. If the system does not operate correctly, disconnect the battery and verify the wiring, fuse or circuit protection, switch, motor, and relay application.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

What are common symptoms of a failed trim relay?

Possible symptoms include a clicking relay with no motor movement, trim operation in only one direction, intermittent operation, or a trim motor that continues running after the switch is released. These symptoms can also be caused by wiring, switches, fuses, connectors, or the trim motor, so test the complete circuit.

Does one relay operate both trim directions?

The relay arrangement varies by engine and trim system. Some systems use one relay and others use a pair of relays. This listing includes one relay only. Check the existing setup and the applicable service information before ordering a quantity.

Does this fit every Mercury or Mariner engine from 20 to 300 HP?

No. The applicable company fitment is narrower than a general 20–300 HP description. It covers selected 1992 and later Mercury/Mariner configurations: 2-cylinder 25–30 HP, 3-cylinder 40 HP and above, and 4-cylinder 30 HP applications. Confirm the exact engine configuration and serial-number range.

Is this an OEM relay?

No. This is an aftermarket replacement. The manufacturer part numbers shown in this listing are compatibility references only and do not indicate that the relay is manufactured or branded by Mercury.

Which part numbers does this relay replace?

Reference numbers listed for this relay include Mercury 882751A1, 828151A1, 828151, 882751A2, and 8M0207773, plus aftermarket references Sierra 18-5849, GLM 73040, and Mallory 9-15210. Confirm the application before purchase.

How should I verify compatibility?

Compare the original relay's part number, terminal arrangement, physical design, engine brand, cylinder configuration, horsepower, model year, and serial-number range. If any of these details do not match, consult the engine service information or a qualified marine technician.

Safety & Important Information

  • Disconnect the battery before removing or installing an electrical relay.
  • Verify the original part number and terminal layout before installation.
  • Do not assume compatibility from horsepower alone; keep model, year, cylinder configuration, stroke, and serial-number conditions together.
  • This is an aftermarket replacement, not a genuine Mercury component.
  • Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with marine electrical systems.
