Hobbs hour meter replacement?

Hi. I finally got around to pulling the range cover so I could pull the old Hobbs hour meter that quit working some time ago.





I can't quite make out the part number or the volts on the back of the unit. It looks like 15000 K/6 4-10 VDC

Most replacement hour meters I have seen are like 12-60 VDC.

What should I look for for a replacement for this guy?

Thanks,
Steve

    ALL RV Hourmeter's for the Gensets run on 12 volts. Doug

    PS.that is not a 10, but either a 60 or 80 volt.

    What's it for--an Onan generator? If so, I think they run off of a (nominally) 12V supply. You could always take a voltmeter and measure the voltage at the hourmeter connection since you have it accessible.
