Re: Clock fuse

God only knows how I fix things. I began removing the clock because it did not start after I put the fuse in. I took the fuse out before starting to remove the clock because I did not want to accidentally burn it.

As I reomoved the 2 nuts to take out the clock and was getting ready to disconnect the wires, I hear this ticking sound. The dang thing started!

So, I'm putting the clock right back in. It stopped. Hell if I know at this point, but how did it start without the fuse? My guess is either, (1) it is wired to a different location on the fuse box, or (2) maybe it had a smidge of stored electricity in it enough to allow it to tick for 50 seconds. I figure probably the former, but just in case, I put the fuse back in. The clock starts ticking again.

I reassemble to the dash and whoalla!

We'll see how long and well it works, but it seems to be working.
