Hi,

 

I've seen various clock fixs and it appears I have a different clock to the US cars?

 

The clock here:

http://www.twinturbo.net/ttnettech/clock/clock.html

is part 25820 30P00 and mine is 40P00.

 

I don't have a top and bottom board and the resistors marked 181 aren't in the same places. I would go ahead and replace these, but I can't work out why I'm getting a reading of 89ohms on the meter (exactally that on both of them)... why isn't it around 180ohms - they can't both have broken and gone to the same resistance?

 

Also, if I had a 200ohm resistor would it work just as well in place of the 180ohm or is it too high?

 

(Yes, my problem is the clock resetting every few days)

 

Any help appreciated!

 

Regards,

 

Jez.

It's usually nothing to do with the resistors. What I usually do is resolder every joint on the board, paying special attention to the links between the double sided board - the quality of manufacturing on most of the clocks is terrible !

I'll do that. Thanks

Blimey Jez, have you been in hiding?

Yes, I have!

 

Or is it that my car's so fast no one can see me! :o
