Complete Tractor 3007-0563 Hour Meter Compatible with/Replacement for Tractors HR400001

What It Is

The Complete Tractor 3007-0563 Hour Meter tracks engine run time, helping you schedule oil changes, blade sharpening, and other maintenance. It’s designed for lawn and garden tractors, specifically as a direct replacement for HR400001-style meters.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your tractor uses a round, 2-pin hour meter with a 2-1/8” diameter mounting hole. This meter fits many Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, and other tractors that originally used part HR400001—but not all. Check your current meter’s part number or measure the hole and pin layout. It’s an aftermarket replacement, not OEM, so wire colors or connector orientation may differ slightly. If your tractor has a different mounting style (square, rectangular, or 3-pin), this won’t work.

Key Things to Know

• Low average rating (3.2/5) – Common complaints include short lifespan (some fail within a season) and inaccurate readings.
• Simple installation – Unplug old meter, plug in new one. No tools needed unless wires must be spliced (check your connector type).
• Weather resistance – Not fully sealed; moisture can enter if exposed directly to rain. Consider mounting under a cover.
• No backlight – Hard to read in low light; not a major issue for most, but worth noting.

Should You Buy It

Buy this only if you need a cheap, quick replacement for a dead hour meter and don’t mind the risk of early failure. For critical maintenance tracking or heavy use, spend more on an OEM or higher-rated aftermarket meter—the reliability difference is worth it.
