Is it an "enm" hour meter?

Does it have an s1 and s2 button?

Press and hold s1 and s2 buttons for 20 seconds.
The service icon will shut off.
The maintenance time will automatically defualt to the number previously programmed.

Hope that helps!

Hour Meter for Generator-I think I have your answer!

Ray (and others who had a similar question),

This is my first time posting to Forest River Forums. I'm the owner of a 2012 Forester 3121ds. I had the same issue and am providing you with what I've learned.

"At the first 20 hour mark (break-in) the display will flash (CHG OIL) for 1-second and reoccur every 4 seconds for 4 hours. This sequence will happen 2 hours before and 2 hours after. CHG OIL service will be repeated every 100 hours."

Please also see the attached ENM Technical Data Sheet for more specifics. If this has been helpful, please let me know!

Respectfully,
John

Generator Panel Forester

Here is a picture of the panel showing the generator button with no S1 or S2 to reset after changing oil. Hope this picture comes out.

Thanks, John, for the pdf link above. I was searching for how to reset the ENM display after changing the oil on the generator of our 2012 Sunseeker. The pdf described how the display should self reset after a certain amount of hours of further generator use beyond the preset “change oil” maintenance reminder. This was the only place I found this info. Having this history of posts from years past is truly invaluable.

Any idea what "HY-OIL" means at the 500 hour mark?

I was curious as well but could find nothing on ENM’s website.
