1989 911 dashboard clock
This is the last of the old style Carerra's (pre C4).
My dashboard clock suddenly stopped working. I hope it's not the clock (expensive) but just a fuse, but the manual is stupidly uninformative as to which fuse does what. However, I cannot find any other components that aren't working (uh oh!)
Help!
Thanks!

I love the very accurate dash clock. It's cool looking and another example of German elegance and simplicity engineering.
I hope its just a simple fix. In my experience these clocks are pretty trouble free.
