Title: Digital Clock
Post by: 86cougar on April 30, 2013, 10:32:38 PM
I just put one off an "87" Turbo Coupe into my car. Problem is I have no idea how to set it. I tried about every thing I could think of. Either I didn't do it the right way, or something my be wrong with it. Thanks!

Mine will hit the trash. Your right, my stereo has a clock also. I'm going to look at some gauges and see what might be useful and at the same time fill in that spot. Maybe a tach? Thanks!

All you do is hold down the "time" button, and use the two little buttons above the display for the hours and minutes. Every one I have had, you have to push unusually hard on the buttons to get them to respond.
