Lenco Pro Control Auto 12V Trim Tab System – 12" x 12" Edge Mount Kit (15186-107)

Lenco Pro Control Auto 12V Trim Tab System – 12" × 12" Edge Mount Kit

The most capable configuration in the Lenco Pro Control lineup — fully automatic trim tab control in a low-profile edge mount package. This complete 12" × 12" kit includes everything needed for a full installation: edge mount blades, actuators, controller keypad, IMU sensor, and all required cabling, purpose-built for larger vessels where transom clearance is limited and hands-free performance is the priority.

The Pro Control Auto uses an integrated IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) to continuously measure the vessel’s pitch and roll, automatically adjusting the trim tabs to keep the boat level without any operator input. The edge mount blade design positions the actuator at the trailing edge of the blade rather than the transom face, delivering a 3" lower mounting height — ideal when transom space is at a premium or a cleaner profile is desired. Blades feature 1" turned-up edges on all sides and a 5° taper toward the trailing edge for added strength and a finished look.

The flush-mount keypad supports manual override and Day and Night display modes, giving the operator full control whenever they want it.

Edge Mount vs. Standard Mount

Edge mount is the right choice when transom height is limited, when a cleaner low-profile look is desired, or when the standard mount actuator position would interfere with other transom hardware. If standard mount works for your installation, see:

• Lenco Pro Control Auto 12V Trim Tab System – 12" × 12" Standard Kit (15184-107)

Other Blade Sizes & Series

• Lenco Pro Control Auto 12V Trim Tab System – 9" × 12" Standard Kit (15182-107) — for smaller hulls (17–22 ft)
• Lenco Pro Control Assist 12V Trim Tab System – 12" × 12" Edge Mount Kit (15185-106) — manual memory-position control, same blade configuration

Add a Flybridge Station

Extend control to a second helm with the Lenco Pro Control Auto Flybridge Keypad Kit (15176-107), which includes the additional IMU required for a flybridge station.

Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: This is the premium kit for customers who want the best of both worlds — fully automatic trim tab levelling and a low-profile edge mount installation. It is the right choice for larger hulls (22–28 ft) with limited transom clearance, where the customer also wants hands-free operation. If the customer has adequate transom space and wants to simplify installation, direct them to the Pro Control Auto 12" × 12" Standard Kit (15184-107). If they want edge mount but prefer manual control, see the Pro Control Assist 12" × 12" Edge Mount Kit (15185-106).

Edge Mount Installation Complexity: Edge mount installations are slightly more involved than standard mount. The actuator mounts at the trailing edge of the blade rather than the transom face, which requires more precise alignment. Confirm the customer or their installer is comfortable with the process before ordering.

Auto vs. Assist: The Pro Control Auto uses an IMU to automatically level the boat in real time. If the customer prefers active manual control or is on a tighter budget, the Pro Control Assist 12" × 12" Edge Mount Kit (15185-106) uses the same blade configuration with manual memory-position control.

Wake Signal Adapter: This Auto kit does not include Wake Signal Adapters in the listed contents. Confirm with the customer whether their engine is Mercury or non-Mercury. If non-Mercury, a Wake Signal Adapter will be required for proper system operation and should be added to the order separately.

Flybridge Upsell: If the customer has a dual-station vessel, the Pro Control Auto Flybridge Keypad Kit (15176-107) adds a second keypad and the additional IMU needed for the flybridge station. It connects directly to the CAN bus network included in this kit.

IMU Replacement: If auto-levelling fails post-installation, the most common cause is a failed IMU. The replacement part is the Lenco Pro Control Auto Replacement IMU (15180-001).
