Just purchased a clock as part of group of center console gauges online from someone that said it was working when they pulled the console out. It was the only one of the three (volt and temp) that was not all scratched up. It was completely frozen. Now I have 2 that don't work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I went to North Hollywood Speedo and they said "Service on these can range from $195 to $385. 1-5 day turn around." I don't need a clock that bad.... Anyone have recommendation for a reasonable repair on the center console clock? (later model) |

I forgot to mention you do not need to take any other part this clock apart to replace the capacitors, the hands, clock face and PC board can all remain in place and the less invasive the better with these things. Here are pics the terminating screw driver, it will save a whole bunch of frustration and possibly damage by using the wrong tool.
