Cool little bother ...Clock!

The clock lcd on my car has been behaving rather strangely - not the display, which works properly/lights up, etc., but the TIME ...

Seems to randomly change, i.e., I set it and next day it can be off by several hours and even show a.m. when it's definitely p.m. ....

Haven't managed to catch the change when driving, it only happens when parked - any guesses before I swap out the clock?

TIA

Larry

A bad connection or poor solder joint on the 12v source. Though if it looses power it should be flashing ????

Time for a new clock?

Luckily, I have a spare ...and as you say, no power = flashing, right?
