I'm not sure if this is a common problem but the analogue clock in my Chim works but does not allow the clock to be reset with teh pin reset button. Is there a quick fix or alternative.

I suppose failing any suggestions teh only alternative is to disconnect battery & wait until teh time catches up with teh clock!

Must be a common problem? I was having the same trouble, but have fixed it by extending the black button. Just seems to be too short.

It may sound daft but try pushing the black button in harder. I thought mine was knackered until someone pointed this out to me. I have to push mine preety hard. Apparently every one requires a different level of presure. Also, it only works one way, so try turning both ways (with your presure on) before giving up! Hope it helps.

Thanks for the advice - saved me a packet. I tried the push & turn last nite per my original posting & it worked. The time i'd spent trying to get the clock to work and failing was frustrating and about to replace it. To think i've built a car before and i can't opreate teh Chims clock is embarrassing to say the least!!!
