Slow Clock

[mercman1969]

Still having the problem of my digital clock working slowly?

Over 1 week it loses about 10 minutes or so

As its digital i wouldnt have thought this possible

anybody any ideas as to why this might happen

My trendy looking digital bedroom clock does this aswell - i too didn't think it possible for a digital device to be so innaccurate.

It's not calibrated to the crystal properly. If there is a pot to twiddle you could try adjusting it but in reality it's toast.

Hi mercman 1969

I had a similar problem on my S430, when I first bought it , my clock over a week would loose a couple of hours. And my sat nav didn’t work, the GPS Ariel was disconnected.

When I connected the GPS cables in the boot, near to the left side boot lid hinge the problem went away

The sat nav now works and the clock has not lost any time since.

If I was you I would check this connection because I think the clock may be updated by the GPS Ariel

Hope this helps.

Regards KJ
