Car Forum / Ford / Ford Cars / December 200895 Contour Digital Clock
Hello: Can anyone tell me how to remove the clock from the dash? Thanks! >Hello: > >Can anyone tell me how to remove the clock from the dash? > >Thanks! Real easy after you get the dash out - Just squeeze the 4 little cips- about 3/4" in from each end.

Thanks CL Not what I wanted to hear.

I could be confusing this with another car, but I wouldn't think you should have to take out the dash. > >>> Hello: > >>> Can anyone tell me how to remove the clock from the dash?

Was it anything like this (particularly pics 1, 2 & 4)? http://www.autozone.com/addVehicleId,1981902/initialAction,repairGuide/shopping/ repairGuide.htm?pageId=0900c152800a8cb1 >> On Dec 22, 2:42 pm, cl...@snyder.on.ca wrote: >>>> Hello: [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >in front. I could be confusing this with another car, but I wouldn't >think you should have to take out the dash. I own one and I have the clock I changed in front of me. The instrument panel bezel needs to be removed, which requires popping of something like 6 screw covers and removing something like 8 screws, then manuevering thebezel off. If I remember correctly the steering column covers need to come off to provide enough clearance to get the bezel off. The wiring to the clock and rear defogger switch need to be disconnected, and then the clock can be snapped out carefully - by releasing 4 tabs. I'm going to have to do it again sometime to replace the backlight bulb in the clock which failed about a week after I installed the replacement clock (which was not an easy job, what with my car being a mystique and the clock I got being a Contour - same clock but different front case) |
