R32 Gtr Clock Fuse.

[mazgtr]

My dash clock doesnt work. After reading a few posts brought up by the search function its either the fuse or the wireing to the clock.

Can someone please tell me which fuse affects the dash clock and where its located, what amps it is.

Someone said theres a couple of fuses called "electronic parts" under the dash that are 10a fuses?

Any help greatfull.

Cheers.

I have the same problem however all fuses have been checked. After my car was resprayed the head unit would not work and the aircon kept resetting to 25.0'C each time I turned the car on.

So what I'm saying is, if your aircon remembers the last temperature that was set, it is unlikely to be the fuse.

And that's where I stopped fault finding! I have two clocks sitting on the bench - neither work - so I guess it isn't the clock itself either...

For what it's worth,

My air-con climate control works, but i can never see what its doing as the display no longer works!!! lol!!! So im not sure if it resets..

Wow seems like a very common problem. Might have to have a think then...

Cheers, Matt.

yeah i got a prob with the clock too, but i havnt looked into it yet.

the clock should have 4 wires going into it, earth, constant 12v, ignition, and illumation.

both the ingtion and constant 12v wires should be on fuses.

also, they dont have their own fuses, they probley share with other accessories.

Ill double check the shop manual, to be sure, to be sure

Thanks that would be great.

My clock dont work. I havent looked into it either. Not much help here sorry, but i thought that i'd just mention that every R32 i've been in the clocks were never working. It must be very common indeed. I'll get around to it sometime but just a matter of time.

[PHATR32]

ive looked at the shop manual, but the scans a real poor quality, and i can workout where the fuse comes from.

ill keep trying to work it out.

I wonder if i can simply buy a small battery powered LCD panel clock from somewhere and simply mount it in the same place...???

Steve any ideas on how to bench test one? Does the ignition need to be connected?

I assume illumination is not required - it will just remain on max brightness?

Here's the scan, for what it's worth.

Sweet thanks.

The only 2 that im not sure of are the 2x10amp "electronic parts" fuses.

Other than that i might just have to give the clock a miss, bugs me though..

Hey Mark, you might have to make the clock the subject of your next in depth tutorial mate!!!

Ps I decided to try and give a simple tutorial a go...

hey i checked to see if theres any power coming out of the plug for the clock yesterday and there was nothing!!

i have to find out which pins on the clock do what, but the shop manuals a little hard to read.

surely someones got a good scan of the wiring schematics?

Good res though and easier to read than the shop manual.

ps Matt I'm so sorry I called you Tim mate I was post-whoring at the time and lost track of who I was talking to in what thread

[PHATR32]

sweet, ill check it out!

also, i checked the clock plug on my gtr yesterday, and there was 0 power going to it, so i suspect its a differant problem. might be the fuse, but everything else works, and i doubt theyd have a single fuse for the clock.

ill let you know my findings

steve

[PHATR32]

just had a look at the pdf posted above and its as good as the ones in the shop manual.

bah f**k it. the shop manaual is freaking useless.

each wire has a special number which allows you to folow the wire through out the whoel diagram.

on the manual these a blured, which makes it impossible to folow unless you print out the schematic.

i have a print out at home, which i might try to follow.

does anyone has a high res copy???

Did you try the 2 fuses marked "Electronic Parts" under the dash? I think there both 10Amp.

I cant believe something as simple as a little clock could be such a pain in the ass!!!

I might try and re-wire it into something else...

when i got my gtr the clock didnt work but didnt worry me, and my head light switch s##t it self and got one on ebay and come with dash surround with clock so i chucked it in and works fine, i have heard they are just cheap
