Strange Clock Problem
Has anyone had a problem with their digital clock? Ever since I drained the ECM voltage by disconnecting my battery and turning the headlamp switch on, my clock does not run. I can set the hours and minutes but it stays like that forever. I've been through the manual several times and there is no indication of any keys that would make it run.
Anyone seen this? My next action will be to disconnect the battery again to see if I can clear this problem. I have the non-Bose radio.
Thanks,

I just disconnected and reconnected the battery. Clock works!
Must have just been a momentary spark or something that stopped the
oscillator. Every other function of the radio display worked perfectly.
Weird.

Sometimes when I disconnect the battery in my 87 Vert for repairs & reconnecting the battery.......
The factory Delco Bose radio clock display starts reading in Military time.
Like 13:00 or 14:00 or 16:00 hours I have witnessed.
The radio & tuner works perfect..
And after resetting the Time on clock to current time,
No further issues.
Clock keeps perfect time always.
Within 1 minute every month checked against another quartz clock or my cellphone clock display.
Just strange.

The clock in my 87 Vert is not broken............the Factory Delco Bose display never fails to light up and display time.
Only when the battery is disconnected for over 5 minutes & I reconnect does the time start reading in Military time.

I mean the 24hr format. I would much prefer that to the 12hr default.
