Mercury – Premier Triple Engine DTS Electronic Remote Control with Trim | Remote Control | 8M0133245

Overview
This Premier triple-engine DTS control gives a steady, confident feel at the helm, even when you’re working three motors in tight spots. The levers move with a smooth, even resistance, so small throttle bumps stay controlled instead of jumpy. The integrated display is handy—it gives quick pop-ups and status notes without adding another screen to the dash. With Active Trim built right into the control, the whole setup feels cleaner and easier to manage.

Performance & Practical Benefits
On the water, this control keeps a triple-engine setup feeling calm and predictable. The levers settle into small adjustments cleanly, which helps when wind or current is pushing you around. Trim All smooths the boat as you climb onto plane, and individual trim lets you straighten out small pulls or uneven weight. The little display cues help you stay aware of what the system’s doing without stealing your attention from the water ahead.

Why Buy OEM
OEM DTS controls keep all three engines and helm stations communicating clearly, which cuts down on hesitation or mismatched response. Mercury’s calibration stays reliable over time, so the feel doesn’t drift from season to season. It’s the setup most boaters trust for big multi-engine offshore rigs.

FAQ
Q1: How can I tell if my old triple control is starting to wear out?
A: Uneven throttle feel, sticky shifts, or trim buttons skipping inputs are early signs.

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

Q3: Is this safe for saltwater use?
A: Yes, as long as you rinse it and keep up with normal helm care.

Q4: Anything to check before mounting it?
A: Make sure the console has enough depth for the wiring, the display, and the triple-lever footprint.

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