Clock: Description and Operation
Clock - Description
DESCRIPTION
Chrysler vehicles include an electrically operated analog clock (1) as standard equipment. The clock includes hands for both hours and minutes, but no
second hand. The hands are protected behind a clear acrylic lens. The clock includes a reset button (2) that allows the hands to be reset or adjusted to the
desired time. Two incandescent lamps provide panel lamps dimmer controlled back lighting for visibility at night when the exterior lighting is turned
ON.
The analog clock (1) is secured with two screws to the back of the instrument panel center stack bezel (2), between the two center panel air distribution
outlets. The reset button extends through a clearance hole in the center stack bezel directly below the opening for the clock lens, which is visible below
the radio and above the air conditioner and heater controls. The molded plastic clock housing includes two integral mounting tabs and an integral
connector receptacle, which connects the clock to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and connector of the instrument panel wire
harness.
The clock can not be repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire clock unit must be replaced. The two incandescent bulb and bulb holder units are
available for individual service replacement.
