tpm419419 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Hello For the third time my vehicles time has gone way off course. First time it was off by an hour, couple of days ago it went off by 2 hours. Today I found it off by 4 hours and then again by an hour. Most times when car is restarted it will correct itself. Anyone else have this issue?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else have this issue?? I had the clock go off by an hour twice (that I noticed) Once it was not set to Day Light Savings when it should have. Another time it corrected it self when I went into the settings menu. My clock is set to sync with GPS...Is yours? Today, the time was correctly showing that DST was over.

tpm419419 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 My clock is set to daylight savings and did change this morning. Afterward and after another engine restart the time went off by 4 hours (minutes are always correct). Pretty sure it is synced with GPS but will double check. I'm guessing this will be a tough fix for the shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tpm419419 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Ha! I can see the head scratching now. I have to laugh because I hate to cry! Ok so taking my daughter to school this morning it happens again. I see the time is 5 hours off. I stop at a light and re check the GPS sync setting and sure enough it was set to off. Switched it to on and so far so good. BUT why with the gps setting set to off why would the time vary so much? Anyhow hopefully it's resolved Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow hopefully it's resolved Thanks I have my set to GPS and the daylight savings options both set to off and have never had an issue with my clock being wrong. I am really glad that they have the option to turn off the daylight savings feature. I bought an alarm clock a while back that automatically changes on the correct day ~ from before they changed when the correct day is. I have to fix it now 4 times a year instead of just 2.

Mine has been all over the place since DST. Right now it sits off by 7 hours (or I guess 5 depending upon how you look at it ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdubb Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I have a daylight savings time option but I don't see a GPS option. My clock is also off sometimes, very odd. My daylight savings time is set to off right now and I noticed the clock was off about 45 min this morning on the way to work. Can someone let me know where the GPS option is located?

My daylight savings time is set to off right now and I noticed the clock was off about 45 min this morning on the way to work. Can someone let me know where the GPS option is located? On mine, it's located in the middle of the clock setting page. the touch manual says... Setting the clock 1. Press MENU > Clock. 2. Press + and — to adjust the time. From this screen, you can also access other adjustments such as 12 or 24 hour mode, to activate GPS time synchronization, and to have the system automatically update new time zones. Once you update any settings they will be automatically saved. Note: The date will be set by your vehicle’s GPS. You cannot manually set the date. Note: After a battery disconnect, your vehicle will need to acquire a GPS signal to update the clock. A GPS signal can be received in an open sky area. Once your vehicle acquires the signal, it may take a few minutes for the update to display the correct time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cirockets Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I have had my Ford Edge Ltd for 3 weeks and yesterday the clock jumped ahead 4 hours. This morning it's 2 hours. All the settings are correct. Yesterday the Date/Year was incorrect, this morning the date is correct but the time is still out by 2 hours. Does anyone know if pulling the famous fuse 29 will correct the problem. Just got off the phone with Sync and they told me there is a TSB 10-24-9 that may correct the problem...I imagine it's just basically a Software Flash...but does it correct the clock issue. Just curious because to me the clock is not a major issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdubb Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I checked my manual and it's much less informative. Looking at my settings on MyTouch, it shows display options (time, date or off), format (12 or 24 hour clock) and an option for daylight savings time. No GPS. Wondering if the GPS function is only part of the nav system, which I do not have. <??> I set mine to use daylight savings time, since it wasn't, and see what that does. It seems to set the calendar automatically and knew it was today's date, it does not however show a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noahjb Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 My clock has issues as well. Sometimes it sets back, sometimes it is correct. What I have noticed is that when it gets set back, it is usually turned back to the time when i was last in the car. How hard is it to get a clock right?

brian75 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I just got my Edge Sport a few days ago. And everytime I get into the car it too changes the hours on the clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Hudnut Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'm on board with this problem as well. MFT gen 2 v2.4 no nav. when my time goes off track i have to re-pair my phone as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinDad Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I had DST option selected but no joy, time was an hour behind. Deselecting it put it an hour further back. Besides my clock being off daily now, having increased frequency of steering wheel volume control issues (nothing happens, then drops to zero, try and increase and it's ear splitting).

sandpiper Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 My Edge is a month old now, no problems. Just went out to the garage to check and the clock and it made the DST switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is up with that? What do I need to do to get this fixed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwolson Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 My clocked changed too without any problems. Strange, the clock receives its updates from a satellite. I wonder why yours failed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
