Ok....search didnt come up with anything and I bought the car used so don't mention the owners manual....I'll save you the time and call myself an idiot.....but I swear I can't find how to change the clock on a stock 2001 S. Help me please

 

Did you look in the secret compartment for the manual?

 

the "-" "+" butttons on the side. move the clock up or down time.

 

i believe you hold down the button that says clock under it and then hit the number 5 and 6 to change hours minutes etc.

i'd have to look but i'm fairly certain that is it.

 

On my '04 model, you push and hold the "clock" button down until the hours start flashing. I think they go first? You can then push the "+" or "-" buttons to change the numbers up or down respectively. You don't have to continue to hold the clock button. Then push, but don't hold the "clock" button again to toggle to the minutes and set them the same way you set the hours. Finally, push the "clock" button one more time to exit the set mode.

Drive Safe,

Hmmmm I'll go outside and try everything and let you know.

 

lol im such an idiot...the H is under the 4 and the M under the 5.....so I pressed and held clock and was waiting and waiting....it never started flashing....then being a genious...I turned the redio on first.....that helpd. Thanks guys.

Answer: Turn radio on....press hold clock until it flashes....let go of clock button.....use 4 and 5 to change hours and minutes then press clock again to finish.

 

Yes. My car did not come with a manual.

 

Here you go, straight from the 2001 S2000 Owners Manual, page 101:


To set the time, Press the CLOCK (AM/FM) button for more than two seconds until you hear a beep. The time display will begin blinking. To set the hour, press and hold the H (Preset 4) button until the hour advances to the desired time.

To set the minutes, press and hold the M (Preset 5) button until the numbers advance to the desired time.

When you are finished, press the CLOCK (AM/FM) button again. The time display will stop blinking and the time is now set.



<edit> OH, I see you figured it out.

Why does every stereo / microwave / VCR have to have a different way to set the time. This is one of my little pet peeves in life. I work in the computer biz, and I've come across some watches in my life that even I couldn't figure out how to set without a manual.

All these years, no standards. It's kind of unbelievable.

Thank god that my cable box auto-sets its time.
