Yamaha Throttle & Shift Cables and Cable Ends


Replace your old or damaged cables and cable ends for throttles and shifts. Shop throttle cables, shift cables, and steering cables for the following applications: marine outboard engines, rack-and-pinion cables, and inboard/outboards (I/O's).

Yamaha Online Parts carries the full catalog of cables and cable ends to repair, replace, or upgrade your Yamaha outboard's throttle and shifting system cables.

Yamaha shift cable replacement

Yamaha shift cable replacement usually involves disconnecting the old cable from the remote control box and engine linkage, routing the new cable along the same path, securing the cable ends, and adjusting the shift linkage so forward, neutral, and reverse engage correctly.

Before ordering a Yamaha shift cable, confirm the cable length, control box type, engine model, routing path, and cable end style. Incorrect cable length or adjustment can cause hard shifting, gear engagement problems, or neutral alignment issues.

Yamaha throttle cable replacement

Yamaha throttle cable replacement usually involves disconnecting the cable from the control box and engine throttle linkage, routing the new cable the same way as the original, securing the cable ends, and adjusting free play so the throttle opens and returns smoothly.

Match the replacement throttle cable by Yamaha engine model, control box type, cable length, routing, and cable end style. After installation, confirm smooth throttle movement, proper idle return, and correct wide-open throttle operation before use.
