Gee another CLOCK ISSUE! Runs fast!!!
82 380 SL clock issue. I replaced the capacitors as instructed, checked over the unit. Re-flowed the solder in a few places on the entire instrument panel with low heat solder pencil.
Now clock runs FAST about 15 minutes in 30! I am a week older by the time I get to the grocery store!!!! Also, dash lights STILL don't work, just the shifter lights. And my horn beeped once and now won't work either. Did I let the Gremlins loose? Janice |

umm..it would seem so , check those traces over to make sure you did not cross any . Sounds like the ol clock is getting too much juice ( voltage)??

Voltage overload is what I thought as well~
There is a resistor on the board maybe two. I wonder if they are not resisting enough!! If that is so, would that make the lights in dash not work? I cleaned ALL light contacts with a light emory and then applied dialectric grease for contact and corrosion protection. All the lights (brake, seatbelt, battery etc) just beam now what a difference, however still no dash lights, that goes for the a/c heater controls and window switches as well. the sifter light works ok though....they all were intermittant for a short while then...nothing. I 'm not good with electric stuff anyway. I shall go back to the clock and look up the color code on the resistor and go to Radio Shack to see if they have a replacement. I used to know what the colors meant, the saying was ..something , something but violet gives willingly...meaning blue violet grey and white. Too long ago.. Well if there is anything you can add, please do!
