[Vwdiesel] clock

[Chuck Carnohan]

I have an '81 that only has 50K miles on it.  When I drove it home, the
clock worked perfectly.  After I had gone through it replacing timing
belt, a motor mount, typical maintenance stuff, the clock never worked
again.  Go figure.....  Another Rabbit (81 pickup) I drive has a clock
that runs great no matter how many times I disconnect the battery or
work on the vehicle.  They are quartz clocks and either run or not
(kinda like the lottery- you either win or you don't). So, chances are
50/50 as to the clock working or not (same with lottery).  Odds are
another thing altogether! A wrecking yard is your best bet.

  Check the connections or visit a wrecking yard sounds like.  As I
recall 
it's 
simply a 12V electric run clock (opposed to an electric wound clock like

older Mercedes).  Unless you battery is coincidentally dead every time 
the clock stops.  ;-)
