Funny how sometimes glitches work themselves out with these magnificent cars. Good for you!

You should download the Fix file for your Nav Unit in case you ever want to disconnect the battery again. Don't use Windows 10 disc burn program to copy the file to a CD-R as it will likely not work. Use the free version of Nero Express and a good CD-R like Verbatim or Memorex.

I have a disk to fix the clock issue. PM me your shipping address and I will send it to you. All I ask is you pass it on to another member who needs it.
It was passed on to me.

My clock did the same thing. But went away the first time I disconnected the battery. This disk will fix it permanently.

That is a common issue when the batter is removed. I had to use the disk to fix mine a few weeks ago. The funniest thing is I have a 6-disk CD changer in the rear storage compartment and it stopped working a few years back. I changed the battery and lost the clock, but the CD player started working again. Talk about strange.

I think the clock problem and the CD fix was only for the OEM Navigation unit.

I saw somewhere on the Forum that a Corvette parts vendor was selling the "Clock Fix" disk for $25. Maybe it was RPI.

I know that the clock fix was a Nav. system issue and has nothing to do with the 6 disk changer. I was only mentioning that it was very strange that the CD player has not worked in a few years, but once I replaced the battery it came back to life and of course we all know that when the battery is removes the clock in the Nav. screen stops working.
