Check the multiplug is plugged in correctly.

You changed the head unit on it?

Very strange one...
The LED clock can be set just fine but turn the engin/ignition off and 5 secs later on again and the time has reset to 1992 and 0:0:0 - ie default zero position.

If the sidelights are left on however (when ignition is turned off) the clock stays lit and keeps the time but again, if the sidelights are turned off, the clock loses itself again.

Sound like the "keep live" feed to the clock has disappeared?

Any ideas?

Thanks all.
