## 🔌 Function

Provides single-lever throttle and shift control from a top-mounted helm position, with trim controlled from the handle through the supplied extension harness.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Detent feel lost, so neutral is hard to find
-   Throttle response lagging behind the lever or sticking at part travel
-   Trim not responding, or working only when the harness is moved
-   Fault codes or a dead control head at power-up
-   Green corrosion in the connector pins found on inspection

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   The twin top mount is 22928976, and the side mounts are 22903907 and 22928971 - mounting, engine count and whether the trim harness is included are what separate the range
-   Xact control cables are listed separately by length and are not supplied with the control
-   Route the 6 m harness clear of chafe points and hot surfaces, and leave a drip loop at the connector
-   All the Xact controls have pre-mounted control mechanisms
-   The four Xact controls differ in mounting, engine count and whether the 6 m trim extension harness is included - check all three before ordering
