I have a CC7265 and the hour meter is not working. Any suggestions on how to repair or where to get a replacement. I want to know the hours for maintence purposes.

I'd suggest ordering a replacement rather than attempting to repair it if it is obviously broken. Contact your local International/Case/Cub-Cadet dealer. Their service department should be able to give you assistance on the how-to and/or suggestions on attempting to repair the "old" one, depending upon what is wrong with it. (i.e. smashed glass and dial vs: loose connection) ....

Typically hour meters are very simple clocks. If the cable to the hour meter is energized (as it would be if the tractor was running), the hour meter is running. If the hour meter is not running - either 1) there is no input voltage. 2) there is a mechanical / electrical problem with the motor or linkage driving the clock wheels - these latter parts are located withing the hour meter itself. ....
