    Re: The clock

    I had the same problem and I replaced the clock itself and it took care of the problem. You might want to try and replace it and see if it will work, otherwise you might have a connection issue which shouldnt be too hard to do if you know what you are doing.

    Re: The clock

    the clocks themselves suck. if you open it up it's pac man electronics. I tried to replace mine 4 times but I was finally able to fix it by taking it out and hitting it with a really big hammer. fixed it good. LOL. I have gauges there now and a different clock.

    Re: The clock

    Just a thought, check for a loose ground wire. Make sure you getting good voltage to the clock too.

    Re: The clock

    i just got the thing and i just found out theres a button in the middle of the car that keeps your headlamps propped while your lights are off... i'm pondering a sleeper light might be in future plans with some internal modding to that little button

    Re: The clock

    I checked all that in mine,I had hot, constant hot,ground,and the illumination wire from the light circuit(this dims the clock at night) I just kept getting more bad clocks.

    Re: The clock

    the fuse is the one that says clock/ecu under the hood. if someone replaced the radio without tkaing the negative cable off there is a good chance that fuse blew. mine did it twice. but that's only if the clock resets... if it just turns off i'd just forget about it and use my stereo for a clock.
