Clock losing time

richwp · Jan 22, 2011

Hi guys

Last weekend I got into the RR to find that the clock was about 6 hours slow, so I adjusted the time and all appeared to be well. Used the RR on both the Saturday and Sunday - all ok. Went to use it again today, and again the clock was showing the wrong time! Adjusted it again, and have been out for a couple of hours doing the shopping etc. and all seem OK.

Any of you had the same experience? It's as if the clock stops when I'm not using the RR?

Could be a sign of low battery voltage or a bad earth connection, either that or the P38 has fallen into an intergalactic time warp

Time issues in a car? First port of calls gotta be the flux capacitor I reckon

I had this and mine was nothing to do with battery issues, it was simply the clock was shagged. Not cheap to replace from memory.

No he's not winding it up often enough.

Take it out, take it to a clock repairer and get it cleaned and lubricated.
