Defective digital dashboard clock V70-XC70 1999

posted by  someone claiming to be Hugh on  Fri Dec 10 08:39 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello,

I have a '99 XC with 60K on the odemeter. The car has a "clock/temperature" display on the dashboard, just below the speedimoniter.


Recently, and without a set pattern, the clock has been re-setting itself to "12:00". The temperature setting (F) does not change. There is no evidence of a general power failure, as the radio does not have to be re-set using the security code. The sporadic re-setting can happen at anytime. Once the clock re-sets itself, it begins to mark time, i.e. "12:01, etc."

To fix this problem, do I have to replace the clock? Or can this problem be fixed in another way. I have been advised the clock, because it is attached to a grid is a $400 item. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Hugh
