Default help with clock...

Hi all,
My clock stopped working on my 97TT. The warning lights work, but the clock stopped and the light on the clock does not work. I noticed that there are two connectors on the back of the clock. One large one with many leads and one small one. Is it correct to assume the large connector is for the various "alarm" lights and the clock power is the small connector? Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Mario,
The large, circular connector provides power, ground and signals for all of the warnings lamps. The single connector is for the clock adjustment. There are quite a few cases where the solder joints have failed with age and vibration, leading to one or more issues with the clock.

If you are unable to diagnose further, consider sending the clock to North Hollywood Speedometer for repairs. Highly recommended.

Prior to removing your clock.. Make sure you disconnect your battery. If you don't you will trip your CEL.
