    Default Resetting clock

    Is it just a matter of disconnecting the battery for the right amount of time to reset the clocktime. 75mins fast. Not the original radio.

    My clock automatically updates itself? I do have the original stereo, perhaps it uses this to check the time from radio broadcasts??

    Depending on model year and stereo that should be in there you may need to reinstall the oe one.

    Change the station to radio one just before the hour and if it gets its time from RDS it will update on the hour.

    if its manual set you will need to change it yourself.

    So what about the clock in the car????? The one he is on about? (as everyone does this time of year - and about in another 6 months or so)

    It's easy enough to put the original back in, but I'm unsure if I will lose the settings when the power is off.
