The trigger sensor is a core component of the ignition system, responsible for signaling the correct firing point to each cylinder as the flywheel rotates. A worn, cracked, or failing trigger can cause hard starting, misfires, rough idle, or a no-start condition, making this a common maintenance and troubleshooting replacement part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis trigger is built to match the original 5-cylinder configuration used on the covered Force 150 hp models, ensuring the sensor timing and mounting match factory specifications. Because ignition timing accuracy directly affects engine performance and fuel efficiency, using a properly matched trigger sensor like the 136-7029-5 helps restore smooth, reliable operation to the outboard's ignition system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 136-7029-5 is intended specifically for 1991-1992 150 hp Force outboards across the listed engine models, and it directly replaces the Mercury-numbered 817029A 5 and 817029A 6 triggers, making it straightforward to cross-reference when ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e CDI Electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 136-7029-5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trigger Sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCylinder Configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 Cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 736983851673\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eForce 150 hp, 1991-1992 (Models 1991B, 1991C, 1991D, 1991F, 1991J, 1992A, 1992C)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury 817029A 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury 817029A 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the CDI Electronics 136-7029-5 trigger sensor fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 136-7029-5 fits 1991-1992 150 hp Force outboard engines across Models 1991B, 1991C, 1991D, 1991F, 1991J, 1992A, and 1992C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat OEM part numbers does this trigger sensor replace?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 136-7029-5 directly replaces Mercury trigger part numbers 817029A 5 and 817029A 6.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 136-7029-5 a 5-cylinder or 6-cylinder trigger?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a 5-cylinder trigger sensor, matching the 5-cylinder configuration of the covered 150 hp Force outboards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 136-7029-5 trigger sensor weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CDI Electronics 136-7029-5 weighs 0.7 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat symptoms indicate a failing trigger sensor on a Force outboard?\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard starting, misfiring, a rough idle, or a no-start condition can all point to a failing trigger sensor, which the 136-7029-5 is designed to replace on covered 150 hp Force models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the 136-7029-5 work on other Force horsepower models?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 136-7029-5 is specified for 1991-1992 150 hp Force outboards; other horsepower models are not listed as covered fitments for this part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 136-7029-5 an OEM or aftermarket trigger sensor?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 136-7029-5 is a CDI Electronics replacement trigger sensor built to match the original Mercury 817029A 5 and 817029A 6 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat role does the trigger sensor play in the ignition system?\u003c\/strong\u003e The trigger sensor signals ignition timing to each cylinder as the flywheel rotates, and the 136-7029-5 is matched to the 5-cylinder Force outboard ignition system it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I cross-reference this part using the Mercury number?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the CDI Electronics 136-7029-5 cross-references directly to Mercury 817029A 5 and 817029A 6.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat models does the 1991-1992 150 hp fitment cover?\u003c\/strong\u003e It covers Force 150 hp Models 1991B, 1991C, 1991D, 1991F, 1991J, 1992A, and 1992C, all using the 136-7029-5 trigger sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CDI Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027441328347,"sku":"CDI-136-7029-5","price":195.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/CDI-136-7029-5_lg__13770.1710432585.500.750.jpg?v=1785163450","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/cdi-electronics-136-7029-5-force-trigger-sensor-5-cyl-replaces-mercury-817029a-5-817029a-6-fits-1991-1992-150-hp","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
