Digital Clock has gone NUTS :-O

Has anybody here had the problem of the Digital Dash Clock going nuts and just rolling through numbers? Like time is moving along in fast forward?

Mine is, and I guess it needs to be replaced... Or might it be something else? There certainly seem to be a number of electrical problems with this car. Like, the slow fan speeds don't work for the heater.

Anyway, any suggestions appreciated!

Fred

I've got the same problem, but only the hours, the minutes are fine. I haven't looked at it much yet because it rarely does it but if you do find something let me know.

Check for loose connections...
Other than that, might just need to replace the clock.




It's just a board.

Mine does the same thing. I tore up the dash one day to try and fix it, but I didn't find anything

Everybody who gets in my car says that my time is off, haha. makes for a good conversation piece I guess

Hey everybody, thanks! It sounds like a pain in the rear to get to, does anybody have an idea?

I'm not sure whether to try and fix it or just let it do it's thing. Since I posted this, it's not tearing around any more. We'll see I guess.

Thanks so much,

Fred
