The Honda 31610-ZE1-836ZG Control Box Assembly (EXP-Alert) (Power Red) is a genuine OEM component designed for GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines. This is an exact Honda factory replacement, ensuring the alert logic and wiring integration of the original unit are fully preserved. Honda supersedes control components at serial breaks, so verify your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to confirm this is the correct assembly for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Alert System Integrity — sourced directly from Honda, this assembly maintains the original EXP-Alert switching behavior and circuit compatibility that aftermarket substitutes may not replicate
- Color-Matched Power Red Housing — the (Power Red) designation is a variant identifier; confirm your engine's control box color before purchasing, as Honda supplies this assembly in more than one finish
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to drop into GX160 and GX200 engines in place of the original unit, with connector and mounting geometry matched to Honda's own design
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates control box specifications at production breaks, so cross-reference your engine serial number with the fitment table to ensure you receive the correct assembly revision
The Control Box Assembly (EXP-Alert) houses the engine's alert control circuitry, which monitors protective shutdown signals — such as low oil pressure — and triggers the appropriate response to prevent engine damage. On GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines, this assembly integrates the switching and signaling components that the EXP-Alert system relies on to communicate a fault condition. When this assembly fails or becomes damaged, the alert system may stop functioning correctly, leaving the engine without its protective shutdown capability and potentially exposing it to conditions that cause internal damage.
