Selected User Reviews For Dometic SeaStar Xtreme Control Cable, CCX179XX
It was impossible for me to shift out of neutral or throttle up and down because my shift and throttle cables were frozen. It was a problem that was completely unexpected, even though I have a contingency plan for everything. Hand warmers were planted on the lines and we waited an hour. After an hour, they melted and we were able to cross. I ordered new lines as soon as I got home. This Seastar line was put on a 50 hp mercury engine that I bought in 2001. A direct swap is possible. certainly improve on the previous model. Shifts will be much smoother and frozen lines will no longer be an issue.
Compared to the original cable, this has a smoother operation. Replace the cable, but make sure that you remove the black plastic bushing from the old cable since this new one doesn't have Upon replacing it, I realized it had already been replaced, and I had already been unable to adjust the shifter In order for the new cable to fit correctly, there was a small plastic bushing on my old cable on the outboard side that was to be removed and installed on the new cable.
On July 9, 2017, an order was placed I installed the system and it worked well once I used the boat on 3/26/2018 (after 9 months). As a result, the cable on the boat had completely rusted through, and now it is impossible to steer. Now I am looking for a replacement that will allow me to go away on vacation with the boat. In the process of contacting manufacturers and suppliers However, the boat needs to be running quickly before that can happen I'm so not happy about it. *additional information*additional information After hours, I reached out to the supplier on 3/26. On 3/27, they sent me an email telling me we can overnight a new cable free of charge, along with a return box so they could inspect As such, I hereby increase the stars based on good customer support feedback. An update will follow This is James.
It is much better to deal with these cables as they move like butter, and give you better control than tired old ones. The cylinders are made of plastic and are not the least bit deteriorated as a brass cylinder would have been. In the future we will be able to achieve high performance through updated manufacturing techniques and materials.
I think this cable is of good quality. This cable works perfectly to replace the Teleflex Gen 1 cable. Worked smoothly as if it were You should get a new control if yours is shifting too often, so you do not lose time on the water.
It was not easy to put together, but it works effectively.
The part I liked the best.
You just need to make sure the ends are on the correct ends to install even a dummy like me can do it. There was no need for an additional foot of cable as it specified to obtain for ordering the old cable was 16 feet 6 inches in length, and it said to go to the next foot when that was indicated.
