Default clock

My battery was disconnected for a couple of weeks while the seat was removed for repair. When I hooked it back up the clock now doesn't work. Any suggestions? I have a 2010 C6.

Some have had this problem and the clock eventually came back on its own.

Did you try reading this thread that's on page 1?

Thank you for responding. After I posted my question, I did find the section in which there is much discussion on this problem. I am not along I see and it appears GM has not resolved the issue. I guess I'll keep searching and just wait for someone to post a solution.

I understand that now and thanks to this forum I've saved much time and money chasing an unfixable problem. At least my GPS and stereo still works so I can just set a pocket watch on the console and roll along just fine. Thanks guys!

Outstanding! Thanks for letting me know. Maybe there is hope for me yet. I'm going to check my Vette today (parked in my shop) and see if I have the same results.

I rechecked my radio this p.m. and it still is not working. Patience I guess.

I believe the clock gets its time as part of the GPS signal, it might help if you move your car out of the shop so it can receive the GPS signal from the satellites.

I did take the car for a drive and still no clock. I'm going to give it a couple months and see what happens. Thanks.
