Volvo Penta Trim Sensor Potentiometer Kit 873531 21985533 with Bracket for SX DP TAMD
Volvo Penta Trim Sensor Potentiometer Kit 873531 21985533 with Bracket for SX DP TAMD
Product Overview
Volvo Penta potentiometer trim sensor kit for SX, DP, AD, KAD, KAMD and TAMD sterndrives, supplied as the sensor, its mounting bracket and the fitting instructions. It replaces Volvo Penta 873531, 22314183, 21985533 and 2312137, and covers more than forty drive models from the AD31 and AD41 families through the KAD42, TAMD41 and DP-D1 drives. The trim gauge reads off this potentiometer, so a worn track shows up as a gauge that jumps, sticks at one end of the range, or reads full down at every trim position.
