Mercury – GPS Add-In Kit | Rigging Accessory | 8M0134384
Overview
This GPS add-in kit gives your boat a steady GPS signal without adding much complication to the rigging. It plugs into the system with a simple harness and starts feeding clean data as soon as it powers up. On the water, the signal hangs on even when the boat’s moving around, which helps the rest of your SmartCraft features behave more predictably. It’s a small part, but it smooths out a lot of little quirks.
Key Features
• GPS Module – Supplies steady position data for SmartCraft functions.
• Simple Harness Plug-In – Connects quickly with no extra hardware needed.
• Reliable Tracking – Helps reduce jumpy or drifting speed readings.
• Compact Design – Mounts out of the way without cluttering the helm.
Engine & Boat Compatibility
• Digital Throttle and Shift
• SmartCraft network
• Active Trim
• Multi-station systems
Performance & Practical Benefits
Out on the water, a solid GPS feed helps Active Trim settle in faster and keeps speed-based features from wandering around in chop. The system reacts more smoothly during turns, quick throttle changes, or rough patches. It’s one of those upgrades you don’t notice much at first—until you turn it off and miss how steady everything felt.
Why Buy OEM
OEM modules blend right into the SmartCraft network, which helps avoid odd readings or slow updates. Mercury’s calibration stays consistent, so once it’s in place, it keeps doing its job without surprises. It’s a simple, reliable fix that tends to stay out of the way.
FAQ
Q1: How can I tell if my boat needs this kit?
A: If Active Trim hunts around or your speed readings drift, a stronger GPS source usually clears it up.
Q2: Does it need setup after installation?
A: Just a quick system recognition—no complicated programming.
Q3: Is it fine for saltwater?
A: Yes, normal rinsing and routine care are enough.
Q4: Where is it normally mounted?
A: Anywhere with clean wiring access; your installer will choose the best spot for your layout.
Q5: What if readings still seem off afterward?
A: That’s usually a network or calibration glitch, not a failure of the module itself.
