Hi I am new to the forums and I was wondering if anybody else has the same problem and knows how to fix it. I have a 2000 S430 and the digital clock in the dash is acting weird. The clock is saying all different times that do not exist. I tried to add in a picture but not sure if it really worked. The clock sometimes has X`s through the numbers, backward numbers, and sometimes reads crazy like 35:00 o`clock. I was thinking maybe something overheated since it is summer but not sure what it could be. Any ideas would be a big help thanks.

 

I guess nobody knows whats going on?

 

I assume that you have the command center with navigation. Try resetting the clock via the command center. You will need to have the key in the 1 or 2 position and use the SVC button on your command center. It will then prompt you for your next steps. I believe it says something like "set date and time"

 

My wife's 2000 S500 had the same issue after some work was done. Dealer basically said it needed a new dash - clock was displaying weird digits and the gear indicator was odd also.....Since they wanted something like $1100 - we said we could live with it.... So it just started working again on it's own - and seems to be temp or season sensitive...so I suspect some sort of connection issue.
