Radio & clock Help

Post

Back to the top
So over the last few days my radio has been loosing power along with the little clock on the dash. Now all the other blinkers and such on the dash work but no clock and no radio! I hate driving without any music so any help would be great.

Thanks

Did the radio and clock go off at the same time? where is your clock, in the dash instruments or centre consul?

Have you checked the power and earth leads at the back of the radio?

Yeah they have gone out at the same time! The clock in on the instrument cluster! I've got no idea what wires to check lol

check the fuse to start with, #3 . wiggle it in the socket if it looks ok, maybe the contacts are loose/dirty
