I got in my car a while ago and the clock had an orange 'half moon' on the bottom half so that I can't see the time. I haven't taken it out yet, but is their a repair or is this just knackered now?

Mine lights up, but has no number display. Not going to take the dash to bits just to get at it. I have a box full of old cycling trip computers - similar size, think one of them would just stick on top of it.

From what I understand the fault with 99% of the clocks is the LCD screen failing. This normally results in a puddle of ink in the bottom half of the screen.

I have made replacement LCDs. There are a few guys in the UK that have used my replacemets I'd be happy to refer you to one if someone needs one. I just sell the parts they rebuild them.
And no you don't have to use the blue. Most are white.

I make the LCDs, and sell them as kits. There a few guys in the UK and Germany that rebuild and or buy my other parts that I could referr you to if you need one.

And no, you you do not have to have the back light in blue, most are white.

Bingo. And there wasn't a source as Porsche made thier own. So, you had to buy the whole clock.

I started making them and have been sellin these for awhile. I have several guys in the UK and Germany I could referr you to if you need one.

Sorry for the multiple post. I didn't realize the replys had to be approved before posting, and tried a few times before I figured it out.

Are you still selling the LCD screens?

I've dismantled mine and just need to try and source a new LCD screen. I'll start with Maplin and see where I end up. If I find a solution I'll let you know because I know it's a common fault and many could benefit.

I would be interested in one of these.

Stick an air freshener over the damn thing!! Who cares what time it is when youre having fun?

I got a brilliant solution for the 944 clock problem. There are loads to choose from depending on your taste and budget etc.... Personally, Mine is a Seiko divers watch with big luminous hands, I wear it on my left wrist. Also, as a secondary I use the clock display that the radio gives off. Sorted!!!!

best conversion ive seen is cococola,s ...he's used a v40 clock...looks good too .... ill see if he will post some pics.....
