⚠️ VERY IMPORTANT – 4 MAGNET FLYWHEEL
This CDI / switch box is designed for selected 1997–2006 Mercury / Mariner 2-cylinder 2-stroke engines using a 4-magnet flywheel ignition system.
Please check your engine before ordering.
Do not select the CDI simply because your engine is:
- 6 HP
- 8 HP
- 9.9 HP
- 10 HP
- 15 HP
- 20 HP
- 25 HP
Mercury / Mariner used different ignition systems across these horsepower ranges.
⚠️ IMPORTANT – Check Your Existing CDI
Before ordering, compare your existing CDI / switch box carefully.
Check:
- Original part number
- Electrical plugs / connections
- Wiring configuration
- Number of cylinders
- Flywheel / ignition system
- Complete engine serial number
- Mounting arrangement
Ideally, your original switch box should cross-reference to:
855713A3 or 855713A4
Different From Earlier 339-7452A CDI
Mercury / Mariner used a different CDI / switch-box family on many earlier 6–25 HP 2-cylinder engines.
Earlier Engines – Approx. 1980–1997
Common switch-box family:
339-7452A19 / 339-7452A15
Later Engines – Approx. 1997–2006
This listing:
855713A3 / 855713A4
These CDI units are NOT interchangeable simply because the horsepower is the same.
Always identify the ignition system and original part number before ordering.
What Is a CDI / Switch Box?
The CDI / switch box is an important component of the Mercury / Mariner ignition system.
It receives electrical signals from the ignition system and controls the electrical output used to fire the ignition coils.
A faulty CDI / switch box can be associated with symptoms such as:
- No spark
- Intermittent spark
- Loss of spark on one cylinder
- Difficult starting
- Misfiring
- Engine cutting out
- Loss of ignition when hot
- Irregular engine operation
Important
These symptoms do not automatically mean the CDI is faulty.
Similar problems can be caused by the stator, trigger, ignition coils, stop circuit, wiring or poor electrical connections.
Proper diagnosis is recommended before replacing the CDI.

⚠️ Appearance Does Not Confirm Fitment
If the CDI looks the same as the one fitted to your engine, this does not always mean it is the correct part for your outboard.
Different Mercury / Mariner CDI units can look very similar but have different:
- Internal specifications
- Wire connections
- Ignition-system requirements
- Applications
Please check the original part number and complete engine details before purchasing.
Before Replacing Your CDI / Switch Box
If your engine has an ignition fault, we recommend checking the complete ignition system before installing a replacement CDI.
Check:
- Stator output
- Trigger output
- Ignition coils
- Spark plugs
- Spark plug leads
- Stop / kill circuit
- Engine earth / ground connections
- CDI wiring
- Electrical plugs and connectors
- Burnt or corroded terminals
- Damaged or melted wiring
A fault elsewhere in the ignition system can produce symptoms similar to a failed CDI and may damage a replacement component.
