Repairing A Chevy Aveo Dash Clock

This summer, I noticed my dash clock kept resetting, and I got tired of setting the clock over and over. Here's how I fixed it.

Thank you for the short, informative, and well edited repair video!

[@konman10000]

Gotta love unleaded solder slowly getting vibrated apart in the heat 🤦 Thanks for the video man!

[@mrg7144]

Thanks for the advise been bugging me for a couple months haha just cleaned it without soldering workS!! Shout out to the Aveo community!!!

[@TimBledsoe]

Glad that worked for you!

[@ItachiFan137]

Was excited to see this fix but I've never soldered anything before nor have the tools so I guess I'm out of luck on that department. nice information here either way. Thank you!

[@TimBledsoe]

You're welcome. it's possible it might fix with just cleaning the circuit board. In my case the melted original solder was making a short.

[@greenmozingo]

Dude thank you for drawing me away from my useless barbarian style of fixing things. Now my fist can heal from using a hammer fist on clocks and the like. This really WORKED!

[@TimBledsoe]

Glad I could help but I'd watch a video of how you repair clocks! 😂

Tried soldering mine, The clock worked again and held time but started flickering 2 months later and drove me nuts, I broke down and spent the $67 dollars for a new one, Worked perfect since.

Sometimes that’s just what you gotta do. Sorry it didn’t fix it

[@TimBledsoe]

Glad your dealer took care of that!

@@TimBledsoe mine would reset everyday . After this not once. Thanks

[@xiaokia74]

If you keep ignoring the clock keep resetting, the airbag light will trigger once the clock going faulty. ^^ It go faulty but the clock still can use.

[@YoutuberRick18363]

What do you mean by resetting? Ours will not display the time randomly. It'll come back and still be keeping time.

[@TimBledsoe]

Congratulations, you don't have the problem this video addresses.

[@danielmaxter1928]

Is there a way yo set this to show European style 24 hours instead of American 12 hours PM, AM?????

[@ahmedsamy7630]

please, what is the solution that is used for cleaning ??

[@TimBledsoe]

I used 70% isopropyl alcohol because it would dissolve and not make an electrical connection later

[@ahmedsamy7630]

@@TimBledsoe thanks for your reply .. do you think that isopropyl alcohol is more gentle on surface and electrical components?

[@corriesnow6689]

Didn't work on mine. still resetting

[@TimBledsoe]

Bummer. sorry that didn't work for you

[@joeylaplante9635]

video would be better without the music. I'm not sure why you'd add music in to begin with, let alone how loud it is.

[@TimBledsoe]

Thanks for the feedback

[@TerryG001]

Thanks for the vid, but PLEASE take the stupid music off. This isn't a music vid. It extremely irritating.
