Default How are the Generator Hours Reset

Had the generator serviced but the run hours were not set to zero.

How are the hours reset?

Thanks,

Dustin

I've never worried about resetting hours on any of our generators, and don't even know if it can be done honestly. I just keep track of the run hours for service intervals.

The Hours meter is to be used for total generator run time, as there is not a reset button. We kept an RV log and one of the columns is for the generator. We included dates, hours run and maintenance costs. The meter is kind of like an odometer when you buy used, you'd like to know how many hours the gen was used so resetting isn't really an option.

Thanks to all. Glad to hear there is no reset.

I thought maybe it was similar to a lot of other things that I've had trouble finding since I bought this coach.
