Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: What are the signs the D.E.S.S. post needs replacing? A: A lanyard that will not stay clipped, a no-start condition, or visible cracks and corrosion at the post are common indicators. Matching the 278002773 cross-reference helps confirm the right replacement.

Q: Does swapping this post require reprogramming? A: Replacing the post itself does not normally require reprogramming, though the lanyard key still needs to be the one recognized by your boat. Confirm the lanyard seats firmly and the engine starts before heading out.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
