pksjeep Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I have a 86 brat, the clock works fine when the car is running. When the car is shut off and started again the clock resets to 1:00. I just got the car, but the clock didn't work for the previous owner. has anyone else had this problem and fixed it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 That link is for EA82 clocks. EA81 clocks are part of the cluster, and don't suffer from the poor solder-joint problem that the EA82's do. In your case the problem is only the clock memory, which is controlled by a plug under the dash. It was to be plugged in when the vehicle was delivered to the dealership to avoid battery drain in shipping. Just look under the dash and you'll probably see it. It's not the green/blue set under there as those are for the EGR lamp.... I can't recall the wire color's off the top of my head but it should just be a single wire with either a bullet connector, or going into a two wire T plug. Should have constant 12v for the clock memory. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 If the connection is okay then the problem may be a blown fuse for the memory circuit. I'm sure which fuse provides power to the memory circuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
