Brilliant timing Joe - first the wonderful print of my 25 that you produced arrives and an hour or so later you publish a tutorial on how to do a job I need to do on it. Top man!👍
Great Video Joe 😊 thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial. I wasn't even aware it was lit up by a bulb. I assumed it was the display that changed from bright to dim ! 😅
yeah they are a common thing on these they love to blow bulbs it seems. Im hoping that when i can afford to, im gonna wire in a Rover R770 Cassette Player with the Radio Display to replace the clock, Ill then fit a 6 CD Autochanger so that will be a nice upgrade :)
You're lucky you have a Lucas made clock. My 2003 is some other cheaper brand and those stop working or become pixelated. I had to have mine fixed by a kind chap in the 200 coupe owners club. The screws are a pain and a magnetic screwdriver is your friend. Great video.
Hello. I've seen a few of your videos and you have done some work on R8's too. Is there a solution for my clock ('92 416 gsi) - it's dimming and reseting itself constantly. Is there any basic fix or should I take it to some electrician / electronics repairman? Regards from Slovenia!
I Do Recommend Some Magnetic Screwdrivers to do this Job as it can make life a bit more Easier. It seems that i like to do things the hard way...

A very worthy video Joe. Saves me doing one for mine.
Cheers Colin :) Should hopefully help those who are wondering how to do it. Maybe ill do more tutorials in the future
Noticed the circuit board was manufactured by Lucas. And you know what they say about Lucas?
Great job Joe, well done!
The Prince of Darkness! - Cheers

Question is Joe, did have the pointy shoes on to help with the repair ?
Of course, it’s the only thing that gives me luck 🤣
A very small bit of bluetack on tip of screwdriver usually does the job when befitting the screws( especially the consul facial on Rover 45)

I have the same issue with my Rover 200 Clock, im yet to look at it however i think it could be the screen at fault.
