Mercury – Premier Dual Engine DTS Electronic Remote Control with Trim | Remote Control | 8M0133243

Overview
This Premier dual-handle DTS control brings a smoother, more polished feel to twin-engine helm work. The levers move with a clean, steady resistance that makes small adjustments easy, even when the water is sloppy. The built-in display gives you quick pop-ups and status updates without crowding the dash, so you can keep your eyes forward. With Active Trim integrated right into the control, the whole system feels tight and organized instead of pieced together.

Performance & Practical Benefits
On the water, this control has a calm, confident feel that makes twin-engine maneuvering less stressful. The levers settle into small adjustments without overshooting, which helps when you’re sliding into a tight slip. Trim All smooths the boat out during takeoff, and individual trim lets you fix minor list or steering pull. The built-in display gives quick feedback without pulling your attention away from what’s outside the windshield. Everything reacts in a steady, predictable way that’s easy to trust.

Why Buy OEM
OEM controls keep both engines, sensors, and the helm talking clearly without odd delays or mismatched responses. Mercury’s calibration holds true season after season, which means the feel doesn’t drift over time. It’s a dependable choice for boaters who want their twin-engine controls to behave the same every time they head out.

FAQ
Q1: How can I tell if my old dual control is wearing out?
A: Sticky shifts, uneven throttle feel, or trim buttons missing a press are early clues.

Q2: Does this control need setup after installation?
A: Yes—there’s a short configuration step to sync everything with the DTS system.

Q3: Is this suitable for saltwater boats?
A: Yes, just rinse the helm and follow normal seasonal care.

Q4: What should I check before mounting it?
A: Make sure the console has enough depth for the wiring, display, and dual-lever footprint.

Q5: What if the integrated display stops showing pop-ups?
A: It’s often a calibration or network issue rather than a failure of the control itself.
