Compatible Applications

Pro Marine 48207SP is designed for compatible Yamaha outboards using the 10-pin Yamaha mechanical-control system.

Pro Marine's application information identifies the following Yamaha engine families for this control:

OEM and Cross Reference Numbers

Pro Marine 48207SP replaces a large number of Yamaha 703 side-mount remote-control assemblies. These older and superseded numbers are important when identifying a replacement control from an existing Yamaha rigging system.

What This Control is Used For

The Yamaha 703 side-mount control is the operator's primary interface with a compatible mechanically controlled Yamaha outboard.

Moving the control lever operates the engine's mechanical throttle and shift cables, allowing the operator to select forward, neutral and reverse while controlling engine speed from the helm.

The control also integrates the electrical functions needed for the compatible Yamaha 10-pin rigging system.

15-Foot 10-Pin Harness

Pro Marine 48207SP is supplied with a 15-foot electrical harness for compatible Yamaha 10-pin applications.

The harness provides the electrical connection between the remote control and the compatible engine rigging system.

Push-to-Choke Ignition

The 48207SP control is configured with the push-to-choke ignition function used on compatible Yamaha mechanical-control outboards.

This allows the applicable engine starting / enrichment function to be operated through the ignition switch rather than requiring a separate helm-mounted choke control.

Power Trim and Tilt Control

The Yamaha 703-style control incorporates power trim and tilt control for compatible Yamaha outboards.

This allows the operator to adjust engine trim while maintaining control of the throttle and shift lever.

Mechanical Throttle and Shift

Pro Marine 48207SP is for mechanically controlled Yamaha outboards.

A mechanical-control system uses physical throttle and shift cables between the remote-control box and the engine.

This control should not be confused with Yamaha electronic throttle-and-shift or drive-by-wire control systems.

Yamaha 703 Side Mount Design

The Yamaha 703 control family uses a side-mount remote-control configuration. This style is commonly installed on the side of the helm, console or cockpit where the operator can comfortably reach the control lever.

If replacing an existing Yamaha 703 control, compare the original mounting arrangement, electrical connector and OEM control number before installation.

Replacing an Older Yamaha 703 Control

Yamaha used numerous part numbers for variations and revisions of the 703 remote-control family. This is why an older control may carry a number beginning with 703-48201, 703-48205 or 703-48207.

Pro Marine 48207SP provides a replacement option for the compatible mechanical 10-pin applications represented by the cross-reference numbers listed above.

Common Reasons to Replace a Yamaha Remote Control

• Excessive play in the control lever
• Stiff or inconsistent throttle movement
• Difficult shifting
• Worn internal control mechanism
• Failed ignition switch
• Failed trim and tilt switch
• Damaged or corroded electrical harness
• Damaged control housing
• Corrosion inside an older control box
• Complete boat rerigging or restoration

Installation Tips

• Verify that the engine uses mechanical throttle and shift controls.
• Confirm that the electrical system uses the compatible Yamaha 10-pin connection.
• Compare the original control part number with the cross-reference list.
• Confirm that the 15-foot harness length is suitable for the installation.

Compatible Applications

Pro Marine 48207P is designed for compatible Yamaha dual-outboard installations using the Yamaha 704-style top-mount mechanical remote control system.

OEM and Cross Reference Numbers

Pro Marine 48207P replaces or cross-references the following Yamaha 704 dual-engine remote-control numbers.

What This Control is Used For

The remote control box provides the operator with independent throttle and shift control for two mechanically controlled Yamaha outboards.

Each control lever operates its corresponding engine, allowing the operator to shift each engine between forward, neutral and reverse while controlling engine speed.

Dual-engine controls are especially useful for maneuvering because each engine can be shifted and throttled independently.

Yamaha 704 Top Mount Design

The Yamaha 704-style control is a surface-mounted / top-mounted binnacle control designed to install on top of the helm or console.

Unlike a side-mount control box, the operating mechanism is positioned above the console surface with the control hardware mounted below the panel.

This style is commonly used on center consoles, offshore boats and other twin-engine installations where a centrally positioned dual control is preferred.

Mechanical Throttle and Shift Control

Pro Marine 48207P is intended for mechanically controlled Yamaha outboards.

Mechanical controls use physical control cables between the remote control and the engines to operate throttle and shift functions.

This should not be confused with later electronic or drive-by-wire Yamaha control systems. If your engines use electronic throttle and shift, verify the correct electronic control before ordering.

Dual Engine Control

This control is specifically intended for a two-engine installation.

Each lever controls one engine so the operator can independently manage throttle and gear selection for the port and starboard engines.

If you have a single-engine Yamaha installation, Pro Marine also carries a separate single-engine top-mount control. Do not substitute the dual-engine 48207P for a single-engine control application.

Includes Dual Switch and Wire Harness

The current Pro Marine listing identifies 48207P as including the dual switch and wire harness used with the compatible Yamaha 704 dual-engine control configuration.

Always compare the electrical connector configuration with the control being removed before installation.

Common Reasons to Replace a Yamaha 704 Control Box

• Excessive control-lever play
• Stiff or inconsistent lever movement
• Internal mechanical wear
• Damaged control housing
• Worn throttle or shift mechanism
• Damaged electrical switches or harness
• Corrosion inside an older control assembly
• Complete twin-engine rerigging or restoration

Installation Tips

• Confirm both engines use mechanical throttle and shift controls.
• Verify the existing control crosses to one of the listed Yamaha 704 numbers.
• Compare the control-cable connections before removing the original control.
• Inspect both sets of throttle and shift cables while the control is removed.
• Replace cables that are stiff, corroded, damaged or excessively worn.
• Verify the electrical harness and switch connectors before installation.
• Adjust the control cables according to Yamaha service procedures.
• Verify forward, neutral and reverse operation on both engines.
• Check that both engines return fully to neutral before operation.
• Test all control switches after installation.
