I've Got A Confused Clock!

Hi All :)

The clock on my stereo tends to get a tad confused...

I'll set the date one day, and a few days later, the date will be wrong...

Out by anything from 4-5 days, to a month or two.

The time is nearly almost correct, so it's just the date thats pranging out...

Head unit in question is the 6000 CD,

Cheers guys!

    When i first viewed the car the Head Unit was broken, and wouldn't not eject a CD, but that was fixed. Quite possibly these two could be related!

    Once the weather has improved i'll take it out and have a peek at the wires :)

    Mine is crazy also. If you change the time, as soon as you confirm it, the date jumps, sometimes by a few months. Then when you change the date back, the time jumps. It's a fine art getting it right! I also find it gets slow over time, but for the reasons above I leave it the hell alone!

    I've no other problems with the stereo except the above!
