The solenoids were an exact replacement for the OEM solenoids and now my lower unit is once again lowering without issue.

Mercury Slave Solenoid
by Gene from Trempealeau, Wisconsin on April 15, 2015
Arrived quickly. Installation was straight forward and fairly easy. The mounting bracket is shorter in length than the original factory solenoid and required a new mounting hole to be drilled. After installation my boat started right away and solenoid works great. I only rated this 4 stars because of the mounting bracket otherwise the rating would be 5 stars. A link to view the dimensions of this product would have been helpful. Overall I enjoy during business with iboats and will continue to do so.

Bad solenoid out of the box
by David from Pittsford, New York on July 19, 2013
Installed the solenoid and engine would not start. Took it to my mechanic who tested it and found that it was faulty right out of the box. Bought a new one at the ship store and had to replace it again. Two hours wasted. My fault though. Should have tested it before I put it in, rather than assuming new part was any good.

Tilt/trim solenoids
by Darren from Ottawa, Ontario on July 17, 2013
Product was as described and fit like originals. Really appreciated the total amount included shipping, customs and taxes as I live North of the border. Still cheaper in the end. Thanks for getting my boat back in service. Enjoying the summer!

Got me back on the water quickly. Living in a rural area near Marion, NC, parts aren't easy to locate at times. i would use Sierra parts anytime.

Q:
Could this part cause no spark to distributor?
A:
Solenoids are typically a relay to the starter to help crank the engine. Spark usually stems from the ignition system (coil to distributor to spark plugs). You will have to run some tests on the coil, distributor, and/or spark plugs and if you need some guidance you can purchase a repair manual or contact a technician.


Q:
Is there a wiring diagram for this part?
A:
There is no wiring diagram from Sierra. You will need to consult your repair manual. If you need one, you can check what we offer: http://www.iboats.com/Boat-Motor-Repair-Manuals/dm/view_id.1


Q:
Does it come with instructions?
A:
It comes with application info, but not installation instructions. Sierra's tech line would need to be contacted if assistance is needed.
