Hi,

How do you input the time on an 18 button OBC please? I haven't got a manual as I am upgrading from the old analogue clock - which at the moment was better, as at least it told me the time .

Cheers

Rob

Keep the time button pressed in until it says "Input Time", then use the  1 - 1000 buttons to change the time.  The ignition might need to be on.

I'd be interested in how you did the conversion.

Cheers,

I only started the conversion yesterday and only have the lights and power connected up at the moment, but I thought that with the 3 existing wires from the analogue clock connected and power to the unit etc. I would be able to at least have the time displayed but unfortunately, more connections might need to be done first as it doesn't display the "input time" option yet. I will definitely let you know whether it works or not.
