I was wondering how to change the digital clock on my 1997 ti to AM/PM from an army-style clock. I read in the manual that you press the hour and minute button but I don't see that. When I bought the car, it came with an aftermarket radio and the guy didn't give me the stock one. Is that where the min/hr buttons are? I only have two buttons beneath the obc display that say S/R and the second is a little clock-looking picture. Any help would be greatly appreciated. | | | 07-16-2009, 04:45 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | you've got an multi-function computer, not just a clock, so the buttons are different, I don't have my owners manual handy so I can't really help you the head unit has nothing to do with it though | | | 07-16-2009, 06:23 AM | #3 | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 | Quote: Originally Posted by the awakening Hi guys.

Thanks to all that helped. It turns out I had to hold the button with the clock symbol to be able to switch it. BTW, whoever designed the OBC display must have been really short because I cant see it well unless I move my head down. Its pretty distracting. __________________ -Brandon- | | | 07-18-2009, 02:37 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | how tall are you?

As for my height I am about 5'9 and for some reason I just can't see it that well. Then again, it was when I had my sunroof and my windows open. Maybe it was the intensive light. I drove today while it was raining and I could see it fine. __________________ -Brandon- | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | Similar Threads | Thread | Thread Starter | Forum | Replies | Last Post | New clock | Maverix | Interior and ICE | 16 | 04-06-2009 01:50 PM | Analog clock | Maverix | Interior and ICE | 0 | 01-25-2009 06:26 PM | Stock head unit problem | TheViking | Interior and ICE | 2 | 04-28-2008 11:12 PM | Digital Clock | sfj642 | Interior and ICE | 18 | 09-14-2007 08:29 PM | digital clock | Guy Massey | Electrical | 18 | 02-07-2006 12:08 AM | |
