Dicky Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Anyone got a nice solution to the Z’s missing clock problem. Yes I know there’s a clock, several button pushes away, but I tend to like the digital speed display. Anyone got something that installs somewhere, sticks somewhere or casts a shadow somewhere. All practical solutions welcome. Cheers Dicky PS it dont look cool sitting in the mean machine and looking at my watch Quote
Liam's Z Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Don't Road angels or Tom toms have time displays??? Kill two birds Otherwise buy on of them stick on dash clocks from halfrauds!!! Quote
Dicky Posted August 9, 2006 Author Posted August 9, 2006 Hmmmm now there’s an idea. I’ve got an Origin b2 fitted so Ill check that out. The only problem might be that I’ve got it fitted in the front sat nav cubby and would have to leave it open all the time and I'd probably get fed up with that. Thanks anyway young man. Quote
rickya Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Drastic soloution could be to get a JDM Bose head unit they have a digi clock on them (though not backlit). Loads for sale second hand. Though will need recoding. Quote
Winged Rodent Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 If you press and hold the top button on the trip computer for about 1-2 seconds it will automatically display the time, regardless of what's currently displayed. Press the top button again, or just wait about 10 seconds, and the display reverts to what was shown previously. Quote

I take it as no with it reverting back after 10 secs Quote

Dicky Posted August 10, 2006 Author Posted August 10, 2006 Like Mr Rodents solution, "Not a lot of people know that" Yes your right Dorian cus we cant be bothered to read the manual (like the yellow truck by the way) Only problem is though Ill have to stretch a--l--l that way to press the button. Wish Nissan had thought of this prob in the first place. Dicky Quote
Guest prescience Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Since Jacko lurves splitting threads I'm gonna offer up another tip, cos why not have a separate thread, which is if you press and keep pressing the air con button the system will determine the optimal air flow (internal recycle or external) Quote

Rob_Quads Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 The idea solution would be to get another gauge and swap it round with the Volts one (which IMO was a bit of a waste) If you could get 2 of trip computers it would be good. Tis a shame as I would love to have.... On 1 - Temp + Time On 2 - MPG + DTE Quote
