    Digital clock

    Does anyone have the part number for the clock mine keeps changing time when I’m driving along and when parked up.

    thanks

    Isn't that connected to the voltage stabiliser or dry solder joints from memory.?

            Sorry, no, but they are obvious once you get it open.

              Thanks. I’ve always suspected that it was some sort of “ loose” connection involving the stalk that adjusts the time on the clock. When I get it out I’ll take some pictures to put on here for future reference.

                Give the stalk that changes the time a gentle tug towards you and for me that seems to stabilise things for a few months. I’m currently finding my soldering iron to fix it properly hopefully. Though, hopefully doth butter no parsnips!
