Thanks to all who kept me motivated to do this.

Chuck, I have those at work, let me know if you need a few more...
They are Delphi MetriPak 630 terminals as the package shows, but there
are several flavors, you need the right one if it's going to lock into
the relay socket.

Thanks for the offer Terry.

Hey, Based on my uploaded images, Mercury finally found the right part
number for the power trim harness for my 1996 3-cyl, 60hp outboard. It
looks like Mercury Quicksilver # 813939A2 is the correct part number for a
power trim harness on the early models (pre 1996), and # 84-826802A12 is for
1996 and later. I am still confused though because when I look up part
number 813939A2, it is listed for 50/55/60 JET 45 or, Mariner 50 (3 cyl)
OG290585 thru OG589999. FYI, my SN plate says: OG330757 so it makes me
think I don't actually have a 1996 Bigfoot at all. If anyone reading this
can use my engine serial number by itself "OG330757" and tell me what
Mercury motor that really is, it might ease my parts-ordering woes in the
future. As it stands, something doesn't make sense here. I shouldn't need
to be sending them photos to identify the correct parts.

Copy and paste from the Mercury web site (for dealers):

ENG: 0G330757 1060452SD MERCURY 60 ELPTO/BF

Your motor was invoiced to the dealer August 23, 1995 and therefore
manufactured prior to that date. That means it could be a 1995 or a 1996
since the model year flip is in July. It was registered as sold April
19, 1996. That being said, Mercury has never held fast to a "year" for
their motors, just a serial number range. Many motors have the year
stamped on the serial tag, but many more do not. The year is not
relevant to the dealer looking up the parts, only the serial number
(making it very frustrating for us when someone comes looking for parts
without the information we need).

Punching in your serial number into my parts program shows only ONE trim
harness - part number 813939A2 which leads me to believe whoever looked
it up for you originally, erred. I doubt very much the factory would
make that error, so I suspect a green parts guy at your dealership did.
You were at a bona fide Mercury dealership right?

BTW, do you have a Commander 3000 remote control? If so, there's an
outstanding recall on it that was never done according to Mercury's
records for your motor. Service Bulletin 1996-013 covers it. I assume
you're not the original owner (unless your real name is Donald) so it's
probably a good idea to have your dealer to a change of ownership so you
can be kept abreast of any recalls in the future.

Sorry to post something on topic in here - I hope no one beats me up
over it. ;-)

Awesome. I think I am the third owner. That info is what I wanted to see.
Yes, it was an authorized dealer but is was a chic who was looking it up for
me. I know that sounds chauvinist. What does the "1060452SD" mean???

That recall info on the Commander 3000 sounds like a dangerous failure. I
can just imagine trying to throttle down and get into neutral when it fails.
Unfortunately, it looks like the part label has fallen off the bottom. I
have uploaded images of my remote to see if it looks like a 3000 series?

1060452SD is Merc's model number (for ordering/invoicing purposes)

You don't have the 3000, so no worries.

He also need not worry about sounding "chauvinist". Poultry could care
less.

This case is closed and I learned a lot of useful info. Thanx!

We should also thank Dave for having the patience to wade through all the
political stuff that people like me are polluting the NG with and take the
time to help boaters by sharing his expertise. Great resource of info.

Ever think of coming on down and running for office Dave? You can almost
see Ontario from my house.

This latest Tom Selleck film has just wrapped. He seems to like it here and
brings lots of yankee dollahs to spread around.
