Generator hours not showing September 14, 2023, 12:51:45 pm Just started my generator and noticed the hour meter is blank.Where should I start?ON EDITI get 14.3 VDC to the meter when the generator is on. I'm thinking the meter is bad.

Re: Generator hours not showing Reply #2 – September 15, 2023, 08:37:18 am Looks like they had a bad batch of meters. A bunch of us 2021 owners have had this same issue. I hope the replacement meter I got lasts longer than 3 years. 1 Likes

I don't recall the hours I had on it but I think it was in the 60s. 1 Likes

Re: Generator hours not showing Reply #18 – November 30, 2023, 12:54:13 pm For the 2021 owners, the meter failures could be a signal of what is to come! So one of you should sell your LD to me before the dam breaks!!HaHaHa!! Only kidding!!RonS 1 Likes
Re: Generator hours not showing Reply #19 – November 30, 2023, 05:27:35 pm On a serious note, my generator meter went blank on my Phoenix Cruiser. I could not find a replacement. The problem I had was the wire connections were on the back of the meter. There was not enough room behind the meter to reinstall the meter. So make sure there is room for the new meter with the wire connections attached.I wish I had your problem!! Have a great day everybody!! Ron S 1 Likes
