I just went to look at my total hours on the machine recently….after I installed Sailfish….Doh!  It says I have 64,397 hours!  Looks like a sign bit problem.

 

Any ideas how it got this way?

 

Thanks,

MBI had a bug which Sailfish inherited which could cause problems with the upper
byte in the total hours. In their 7.2 release they dealt with this by adding an
option to reset the total hours. We don't have a similar option in Sailfish.
But you can do a complete EEPROM erase after which everything will get set to
factory defaults. That should clear that up (if you are on Sailfish 7.3).
