Fitment FAQ
Will this part fit my specific model and year?
This CDI is intended for selected Yamaha 9.9HP and 15HP 2-stroke outboard engines using OEM 6B4-85540-00.
Because horsepower alone does not identify the ignition system, verify your complete engine model and original CDI before ordering.
Do I need to match the OEM part number?
Yes. Matching the OEM number is strongly recommended.
Primary references:
6B4-85540-00 / 6B4-85540-00-00
The OEM number provides a much more reliable fitment reference than simply matching a 9.9HP or 15HP engine.
What models or situations does this part not fit?
Do not assume compatibility with:
Every Yamaha 9.9HP outboard
Every Yamaha 15HP outboard
4-stroke engines
CDI units using a different OEM number
7-wire CDI systems
Modules with different connectors
Applications with different mounting dimensions or wiring
In particular, this 8-wire 6B4-85540-00 CDI should not be confused with the 7-wire 63V-85540-00 CDI used on other Yamaha 9.9HP / 15HP 2-stroke applications.
What should I check before ordering?
Confirm:
Yamaha outboard engine model
Engine type
2-stroke configuration
OEM 6B4-85540-00
8-wire configuration
Connector shapes and terminal arrangement
Approx. 77 × 59 × 21mm module dimensions
Approx. 77mm mounting-hole distance
Original CDI appearance
