From the information provided in the question,
we can only conclude that something broke.
Check dashboard fuses.
Timex Large Display Alarm Clock Radio is a good alarm clock with a big display.It plays mp3's and costs less than 20$.
I don't believe you can display both the radio station and the clock at the same time. With the radio on push the "CLK" button, that will display the time and I believe when you change radio stations it will display the station # temporarily before returning to the clock display.
check the fuse on the wires on your radio, there is a separate wire for the display lights that should be wired to your dash lights
lights on the radio and clock have gone off
The radio display is usually tied to the dash board lights. As you raise or lower the illumination on the dash, the radio lights should change. During the day (with your headlights off), the radio display is at full brightness so it is easier to read in daylight.
OK, I have the exact same problem and am working to find out the solution. If and when I do I will post an answer. If you are able to find a solution first please post it here. Thanks
With the key on, turn the radio off and you will see the display on how to set the hours and minutes.
Look for one with a small display and no fanct parts.
Assuming you mean the clock in the radio display. turn on radio, Press the RDS control button until it Clock Hour is displayed then use the SEL control (up/down) to set the hour. The Clock Minutes is the next item in the RDS control display. Use the SEL control to set the minutes while in the Clock minutes mode.
If you turn up your interior dashboard light settings, then the radio display will be brighter too. The radio dims to the setting for the dashboard when the lights are turned on.
broken circit in your light switch
Turn your car on, so that the radio can be turned on and off. Then turn your radio off. After is it off, push the clock button and while holding clock, use seek to change the hour and tune to change the minutes.
