Does anybody know how to fix this problem with my clock?

 

im pretty sure that cant be fixed....it might have to be changed.

 

Well yea I am sure of that also. Anybody know if this is a good DIY?

 

Its very easy to get to teh clock. replacing it is just a few screws

 

How about getting to the clock? You know like taking off the panel and stuff.

 

And do i need to replace the entire clock unit?

 

LIke i said do a search for Indaglo Gauge DIY's. There will be instructions to getting the dash apart (very easy) then you will see the clock. Odds are you will need a new clock

:edit: looks like he beat me to it

 

Thanks for the input everyone

 

you know what, last time i opened up my dash i happened to be tinkering around with the clock... once you open it up you'll likely understand how it works. i think basically the components have slided around causing the PCB to make full contact with the electric source which causes the screen to become black.

damn i just realized how bad the wording is... but yeah open it up and you should be able to fix it ok. GOOD LUCK!

 

So basically i just replace the clock unit? There is no way to just fix it right?

 

Can i replace the bulb for the clock also this way ?
thanks

 

Well subtledreamer said you can look at it and see if its fixable, see if every thing is making contact. But if not its not like a bulb went out and you can replace it.

Yes

 

Man you know everything.

 

Almost every thing. If i knew tonights powerball #s id be real happy

Best bet for your clock is to pull it out and look at it. Maybe check around a few salvage yards to see if they have one you could get?
