Clock stuck on time

OK - jokes aside about it being correct twice a day... my clock is stuck on 7:35. I did a search and found lots of people having issues with the clock not displaying... but has anyone had the clock "stop" like this? Any ideas?

Where do I wind the clock?

No need to do anything mate. So your clock is correct twice a day. That's two more times than mine is, which runs five minutes ahead all the time.

Sorry, couldn't help meself.

Mine did it once, when I got out of the car to drop something off and restarted the car it worked fine, although it didn't update for the time it had lost. The problem hasn't come back...

As for what you can do... Beyond taking it to your dealer, probably nothing.

I had this happen once. The clock stopped, and so did the odometer!

I had to shut the car off, and when I turned it back on, both the clock and odo had updated to the correct numbers, but still wouldn't update. It fixed itself after the car was shut off overnight, hasn't happened since. Best advice I can give is let it sit, and see what happens. Then you might try disconnecting the battery for about 10 minutes, and seeing if it's fixed.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the responses. I guess I'll let her sit over night and see what happens. Crazy little car...
