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! :rofl: 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,

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

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.

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.. :thumbsup:

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

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

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

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... :D

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

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
