dash clock resets in my 94 v6???

94v6blkndred · April 17th, 2007, 03:34 PM

sometimes it does it three times a day..sometimes it doesnt do it for a week...is it maybe the clock itself is goin bad or is it something to do with my alternator? any help will be awesome! thanks

check the connection to your battery usually the clock resets when the battery has been disconnected.

94v6blkndred · April 17th, 2007, 03:41 PM

like the connection on the clock or to the battery itself? the clock is the only thing that i have problems with so..pop the clock out and check the wiring and if so does it just pop out or do i have to take the radio and bezel and all that good shit out

GreenFaleen · April 17th, 2007, 03:46 PM

No just go to your battery and make sure the terminals are tightened and there is no frayed wire or anything. If the battery terminals are loose then it might just be resetting the clock and radio when you stop and such.

94v6blkndred · April 17th, 2007, 03:47 PM

alright cool ill check that but...the thing that gets me is the radio doesnt reset...only my dash clock..kinda weird

GreenFaleen · April 17th, 2007, 03:49 PM

hmm like the one in the little hub thing above the air vents in the center of your dash? and do you have a aftermarket headunit?

94v6blkndred · April 17th, 2007, 03:50 PM

yea its the mounted one in the half ass bubble ahha and yea i got an aftermarket head...the car had one in there when i got it but i put a better one in and just recently the clock starting resetting

GreenFaleen · April 17th, 2007, 03:51 PM

Yeah most aftermarket radios keep your settings and time even if power is cut, so thats why the clock is all you notice.

94v6blkndred · April 17th, 2007, 03:52 PM

alright thanks! i gotta go back to work and ill check the battery cables when i get home...ill keep you posted if that doesnt fix it!

GreenFaleen · April 17th, 2007, 03:54 PM

awesome man hope everything works out

94v6blkndred · April 18th, 2007, 11:09 PM

hey GF i checked me battery cables to make sure they were nice and tight and they were and its still resetting

anymore ideas?

GreenFaleen · April 18th, 2007, 11:22 PM

possibly a loose power wire to the clock? Take it out and see if anything is frayed. But looseing power is the only way it will reset.

94v6blkndred · April 18th, 2007, 11:25 PM

k..does the clock just pop out from tabs or do i have to take the radio and all that out? so i dont just rip that bitch out and have a hole in my dash hahahha

GreenFaleen · April 18th, 2007, 11:31 PM
