    Question Dash/clock lighting problems.

    The light for my clock will stay on when i have the lights off but it turns off when i have the lights on (defeating the purpose of having it light up!) I bought the car with an aftermarket radio and im thinking something got crossed in the install. any ideas what the problem is?

    that's crap.

    well, now you have a few options.. you can attempt to fix it yourself. or you can send it to me and i'll fix it.

    it involves re-soldering a transistor. T302 to be exact.


    just reheat the joints with a soldering iron.
    LEDs.... yay!
