It works
 
fyi Bryan, I called the service guys and they walked me through it, the
clock popped right out of the dash... I just gently placed a flat head in
the seam between the bottom of the clock and the dash, then twisted gently,
I then finished it off by doing the same at the seam closest to either air
vent.... it took like 10 seconds....

Absolutely 100% positive. Pry the clock out from the bottom with a
small straight blade screwdriver. Disconnect the two connectors. Pull
the tiny light out from the back. Replace with a new one ($2 at my
dealer). Reverse the procedure. Done.

Yes, the clock light is supposed to be on all the time when the ignition
is on.

Absolutely 100% positive. Pry the clock out from the bottom with a
small straight blade screwdriver. Disconnect the two connectors. Pull
the tiny light out from the back. Replace with a new one ($2 at my
dealer). Reverse the procedure. Done.

Yes, the clock light is supposed to be on all the time when the ignition
is on.

The clock on my 98 accord LX used to be illuminated and then it
stopped. A few weeks ago it lit up again(for a few hours) after
having been off for months. Go figure...


All times are GMT -4. The time now is 09:13 PM.
