I had my clock, oil pressure and volt gauges out to fix up some cracks around the gauge cases. Now that it's all back together the clock no longer goes... I don't think I screwed up the wiring as it's pretty simple stuff, and have already checked the clock wires (all 2 of em). I couldn't find a fuse for the clock specifically (the oil and volt work fine still), so not sure where to look next. Anyone played with the clock much before...?


Cheers,
Gavin.

On mine, the oil pressure and clock are on the same power line, so if that is connected, and the ground is connected, your clock has passed to the clearing at the end of the path.

Try your hazard flashers. If they also don't work, then it's the fuse. they share a fuse.

I had my clock out recently to fit a gauge bezel. Put it back in and it had stopped. Other gauges were fine. Turned out i blew a fuse - number 7 if I remember correctly Also the interior light and radio go through this fuse. 8amp fuse I think

Ahh, cool - thanks guys for the responses!

Billson, I also fitted some bezels whilst I was fixing the cracks - they look much better I think.


Cheers,
Gavin.
