Good To Know

Q: Will this switch work on other Mercury outboard models? A: This is specifically designed for the 150 HP Pro XS 6 CYL (2.5L) engine, but it may fit other models using the same 889514A01 part; always verify with your engine's serial number.

Q: How difficult is it to install this neutral switch? A: Installation is straightforward for most DIYers with basic mechanical skills, as it mounts directly to the shift linkage and connects to the existing wiring harness.

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