GQ Clock only works when it wants to!

Who care about the clock???? nothing else works on my GQ so why should the clock!

LOL!! I just fixed mine again (for the last time!!) - it's smashing out the time, green and bright ... for a day or two anyway ...

Other than that, I could always use another 12volt connection!!! lol

Sure is mate - most the GQ's I know of, including mine, have a "clock issue" of some sort!!!

I call my clock, the Christmas Clock, I never know when it is going to work, and surprises me when it does,
funny thing is it always shows true time, except last time it decided to work, but that was coz the battery sh!t itself hehehehehe

Hi Guys, I know this reply is alittle late but mine has benn working on and off for the past five years and 7 weeks ago i did something about. I reckon this will work for you guys aswell. Pull out the curcuit board from the housing and with a soldering iron remelt the solder connections along side the display unit there will be a silver box beside the display screen and those connections i did and has worked ever since. Tech people call it a dry solder joint and re-melting the solder gives it a new connection. I also have done a mates Gq 4 weeks ago and today it is still working. Hope this helps you out.

haha! i thought i was the only one with a faulty clock, only works when you don't need the time

WOW, spinout. I thought my clock issues was related to my dodgy wiring behind there. I didn't relise it was a common fault! awesome.

Did mine about three weeks ago, worked perfectly till the weekend when Ryan saw it ... has worked perfectly again ever since!!

Moral to the story: do it, and don't tell anyone!!! lmao
