Does the 2007 Mercury 115hp 4 stroke come Smartcraft enabled? My dealer said that it does not.

Nope, not for that engine

[thundercraft newbee]

The Mercury Engine booklet says it is smartcraft compatible

Depending on what features ....

I have just fitted my 2007 115hp 4 stroke upto smartcraft sc1000 tach - majority works but at the moment I am having trouble get the power trim to register trim on the tach Sc1000

Perhaps I was wrong....the Merc website shows what models are smartcraft and the "4-stroke" 115efi is not listed.??

They all have Smartcraft.....just need the harness to tap into the PCM
And the trim problem...Go to Cal 2 or hook up CDS and set trim at your dealer

The only thing the Smartcraft will not show is water pressure on the newer 4-strokes. Also, to have the trim function work, you will need to replace the analog trim sender with a digital trim sender. Most say it's better to get a separate analog gauge, as the trim reading on the Smartcraft is very slow ..

thanks for advice on TRIM

hook up CDS and set trim at dealer ? - please explain

so trim signal is definitely analog? as Mercury is telling me it is digitial and that I have just not calibrated it correctly.

but I have calibrated it and the digital readout just say 656 with the last digit flashing all the time?

if I use separate analog trim dial, what cabling do I need from the smartcraft SC1000 feed to the extra dial?

Thanks

It is analog. They also told me the Smartcraft would show water pressure, but it won't. I would not hook it up to the Smartcraft gauge at all. Just use a separate analog gauge. You should have a brown wire with a white stripe under the dash for this purpose. Or spring for the digital sender. If you're sender looks like this, it's analog...

I have a 2007 22 foot aluminum boat with cabin. Boat and 2007 merc 115 4 stroke with smartcraft. It does register water pressure and trim angle.data is not delayed. My speedo gauge stopped working, but tack still works. Just got back from valdez ak fishing trip. This motor is great, i got over 5 mpg with 4 adults and fishing gear. boat weighs 2800 lbs. empty. Run over 80 miles a day several days. also had 9.9 kicker on. this motor is so quit and smooth i can't beleive it is outboard. I ran this boat over 600 mi. in 14 days. I checked the mileage ea. day with my gps. john

do you have digital gauges or analog ones ... is the trim gauge analog

is your trim sensor digitial or analog?

did you fit additional harnesses onto the engine as Mercury are telling me that the 2007 115 4 stroke is smartcraft compatible but not smartcraft ready as you need to purchase additional conversion harnesses depending on your gauge requirements....

ie Digitial gauge + analogue senders = extra $250 conversion harness !
