Resurrected Clock!

My clock hasnt worked through the whole winter. It would come on about once a month for about 5 minutes then thats it. Well, it seems that over the weekend, it came and its been on ever since. I've been meaning to fix it with Craig's writeup, but I've been too lazy and its always been too rainy. Just thought I'd share.





I probably just jinxed myself

I fixed mine about 3 weeks ago. Wasn't too difficult, I'd reccomend reomoving the steering column trim before hand, makes it all easier when removing the upper trim.

My clock seems to have fixed itself as well... A few months ago it would just fade out/disappear at random times but it has been working perfect ever since then.

Not that it matters really, most CD players have clocks. I guess we're all just obsessed with perfection though

mine has a mind of it's own, didn't work for months, then did. It still goes out occassionally, nothing a quick little rap on the dash won't fix

my clock is like this >>> it doesn't work. but. months will go by. seasons will change. geologic epochs will advance and creep through eternal time. then. suddenly: the clock comes on. it's bluish digital face shines in a tiny but tremendous presence. it is beautiful. and it reads an incorrect time. the rare blossoming event happens. the clock stays on for a couple of days. maybe 3 days. this rare phenonmenon is quite an event. then. just as it came. it is gone. darkness. clock goes black. the curtain closes. she's gone underground to sleep through winters and centuries. until next time...

My clock works... but I snatched it out and molded a custom pod in there for my remote start timer.
