Mercury – Zero Effort Digital Control (Throttle/Throttle, Starboard Mount) | Remote Control | 8M0085477

Overview
This Zero Effort control gives you a straightforward two-lever throttle setup, the kind of layout performance boaters like when they want clean, separate power control. Both levers have the same smooth feel, so you can ease into the throttle without the boat jumping or lagging. The red knobs make them easy to spot and grab, especially when the ride gets busy. Mounted on the starboard side, it fits naturally into most race and high-speed helm layouts.

Key Features

 • Digital Throttle – Smooth, steady response through the whole range.
 • Starboard-Mount Layout – Fits the right-side control position used in many performance boats.

 • Built for Performance – Suited for race outboards and high-powered stern drives.

Engine & Boat Compatibility
 • Digital Throttle and Shift
 • Race outboards
 • DTS stern drives

Performance & Practical Benefits
Out on the water, the twin-lever throttle setup gives you a direct feel for each engine. The levers move with a steady, predictable resistance, which makes it easier to hold the exact throttle spot you want without overshooting. It helps keep the boat settled when you’re trimming for speed or working through chop. The simple layout means less thinking and more driving by feel.

Why Buy OEM
OEM controls keep DTS communication clean, so the engines respond the same way every time you push the levers. Mercury’s calibration stays consistent, which is something you really feel when you’re running fast. It’s a setup performance boaters stick with because it stays reliable over the long haul.

FAQ
Q1: How do I know if a throttle/throttle setup is right for me?
A: If your shifting is handled elsewhere and you want clean, separate power control, this layout usually makes sense.

Q2: Does it need setup after installation?
A: Yep—just a quick DTS configuration step.

Q3: Is it fine for saltwater use?
A: Yes, just rinse the helm area after each run and you’re good.

Q4: What should I check before mounting it?
A: Make sure you’ve got enough starboard-side top-mount space and a clean path for the harness.

Q5: What if one lever starts feeling rough or sticky?
A: That’s usually a wiring or calibration issue rather than the lever itself.
