Best Answer

If the radio works, but the display does not, you're probably hosed. I've read here that the the radios can be repaired, but I doubt if it's worth the expense.

When I bought my '96, I had the same problem. In addition, the covering/markings

on the buttons were worn and torn. I bought a replacement radio from an Ebay seller for about $45, if memory serves. It was from a Grand Prix, but was the same as as the one in my car. With luck, you can replace the factory cassette model with a CD model. Just be sure that the radio is unlocked, or that you have the security code. If you don't, you'll be in for another headache.

Turn ignition to "on" or auxiliary with radio off. Time will light up. Press and hold the "hr" button until the numbers move. Do the same with the "min" button. Good luck.

How do you reset the radio in a 2000 Pontiac Sunfire?

The radio on your 2000 Sunfire is probably reading "loc". If this is the problem, you need to go to a Pontiac dealer and pay them to unlock the radio. This is an anti theft device to insure your radio can not function if it is removed. The cost is from 10 to 20$

Your Clock Radio Dial in 1997 Pontiac Sunfire wont stay on have to hit it then it comes on how to you fix this problem?

Hitting it is not going to fix it - that will only make matters worse. A possible problem is a loose connection inside the radio or in the dash. Remove the radio and check all its wiring and the connecting wiring that leads to the radio. You'll need an Ohmeter.
