My clock has a mind of it's own...
 
Ok, I know this is a common problem for 3rd gens because my moms 91 SE did the same thing. I've got a 94 and the clock works randomly. Some days it won't display at all, then some days it work all day.

I do have to say though it keeps good time when I can see it:laugh:

Anyone have a solution for this?

Welcome to the clocks of the 3rd gen! I remember having to hit it a few times to get it working and some times it just worked fine.

My clock still displays. It rarely goes dim and when it does, I just press the face or the area around it. I guess I'm lucky :)

Hey moderators, see if we had the stickies, we could just send them to the stickies. Stickies, stickies, stickies !!!

I may give the junk yard a shot. I need to get a passenger door lock solenoid from there anyway.

Or I could just flick it :laugh:
