Diesel Clock
The one thing that I could always count on was my clock on my 1986 Golf Diesel. It stopped working and I checked the fuse and it is not that. Anyone have any suggestions? I really liked the anaolg clock in my cluster. Everything else works fine even the odometer.

clock
Replaced my clock with a donor that I new worked but it did not work in my cluster. I traded the circuit board film from the donor cluster onto mine and the clock is now working. Great except now my water temperature guage does not work. Switched out water temp guages and it still does not work. I guess there must be a slight difference in the circuit board film from one to another. At least my clock works now.

Re: clock
From what you have said, could it be that your original clock was not broken, but merely the circuit had a fracture. That is why new clock didn't work on old circuit. Check, and find break.
