Mercury – Analog Gauge Harness | DTS Engine Link | 84-8M0095827

Overview
This 25-foot analog gauge harness plugs right into the engine’s 4-pin lead and gives you clean signals for trim, coolant temp, oil pressure, and tach. The extra length makes it a solid choice for bigger boats, longer rigging paths, or consoles mounted well forward. On the water, it helps the gauges stay steady instead of flickering or dropping out the way old wiring sometimes does. It’s a simple, long-reach harness made for DTS engines.

Key Features
    • 25 ft Harness – Built for extended rigging runs on larger boats.
    • 4-Pin Engine Connection – Plugs straight into the DTS engine harness.
    • Analog Outputs – Feeds trim, coolant temp, oil PSI, and tach.
    • OEM Wire Colors – Matches Mercury’s factory pinout and layout.
    • Flexible Marine Jacket – Handles heat, spray, and vibration.

Engine & Boat Compatibility
    • DTS outboards
    • DTS V6 / V8 outboards

Performance & Practical Benefits
With the extra length, routing becomes cleaner and less cramped—you can run it through bulkheads, under decks, or up to a forward console without stretching anything. Once installed, the gauges usually settle down and read more consistently because they’re getting a clean signal straight from the engine. It’s a quick upgrade when older wiring starts acting up.

Why Buy OEM
OEM harnesses hold tight, fit correctly, and follow Mercury’s wiring pattern exactly. That means fewer weird gauge issues and far less troubleshooting. DTS engines are picky about wiring, so most boaters stick with OEM to avoid chasing electrical ghosts later.

FAQ
1. How do I know this is the right harness?
If your DTS engine uses a 4-pin analog lead and you need a long run, this is the right one.

2. Does this support digital gauges?
No—this harness is for analog tach, trim, temp, and oil PSI.

3. Is 25 ft too much for small boats?
It can be coiled neatly, but it’s mainly intended for larger layouts.

4. Do I need special tools?
No—plug it in, route it cleanly, and hook up the gauges.

5. What are signs the old harness is failing?
Jumping needles, dead gauges, or readings that come and go.
