RE: [DML] dmc console clock

["Kermit Poling" <KPoling@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the real obvious question, but is the clock plugged in?  Mine
didn't work and I finally decided to look underneath and it had been
disconnected, probably for the same reason: the stereo had one.  It came
back to life, but it doesn't keep time well (runs fast typically and
gains about 3-5 minutes per day) and the green numbers combined with the
angle of the mount get pretty much washed out in bright daylight.  (My
'83 didn't have one so I had never seen one working and, silly me, I
really expected it to be a red clock instead of green.  Oh well.) Good
luck with it.

Subject: [DML] dmc console clock

After 3 years I am doing the last little nitpickiy thing on my car. 
One of those is the clock. Since my stereo has the time I have never 
really bothered but now want to know how much is involved in fixing 
mine. It has never worked since I got the car 4 years ago. Is there an 
easy checklist of how to tell whats wrong and if mine is fixable? I 
have all the normal electrical equip and can troubleshoot pretty well 
with instructions. Anyone out there who brought their clock back to 
life? I have read about the problems with these clocks but just wanted 
to see if mine still could work...

thanks for any help.
