i recently purchased a 94 foretravel grand villa ,can anyone tell me what the hobbs meter and toggle switch and red light means in the rear near radatior under the flap i figured out the air filter meter but not the rest of it thanks for anyones help keith
Hobbs meter = engine run hours
Toggle switch = engine start/stop
Red light = oil pressure
Engine won't shut off (actually, ignition won't) (https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?topic=29622.msg252183#msg252183)
thanks so much , why would you start fron the rear and does the red oil pressure light only come on when low thats for your help so much to learn on this coach
Rear starter is mostly used by maintenance techs working on the engine. Avoids having to run all the way up to the front to start.
Red light is ON when oil pressure is low. Will be on for a few seconds after engine start, then should go OFF.
