Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my solenoid has failed? A: A single click with no crank, or no click at all when the key is turned, often points to a failed solenoid. Testing for voltage at the starter terminal is the quickest confirmation.

Q: Is this a direct replacement? A: It is built to match the mounting and terminal layout of the 2005-2006 Mercury 8 2-cylinder 4-stroke platform. Compare your old part's connections before ordering.

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