2001 Honda CRV Clock Fix

[@SambarDad]

Just bought an 01 CRV yesterday. Clock wasn’t working. Bought a soldering iron and solder for less than $10 from Walmart and redid the solders. Works perfectly. Thank you so much!

[@EddieCarrara1]

Awesome Sam, ,thanks for the feedback 😁

[@NoK1dding]

I wanted to add that after soldering the first time, the clock did not turn on. At my spouse's suggestion, I applied more heat to the newly soldered joints to spread the metal a bit more and that did the trick. Thanks again for sharing a really helpful instructional.

[@EddieCarrara1]

Thanks No Kidding, I really appreciate you sharing that information, sometimes it doesn't work on the first attempt, you need to make the contact with the solder.

[@schrommfamily4272]

After buying 5 clocks from my local auto dismantler this year, all of which were inoperable, I decided to see what was online. I now have 5 working clocks thanks to this video. Simple fixes. All had cracked solder connections.

[@EddieCarrara1]

😂 Hi Ella, Maybe it's time to sell them on Ebay, you'll make a killing!!! Thanks for sharing your results I really appreciate it 😊

[@godfirst6880]

That's funny because I did the same thing as you did and got 3 clocks from a junkyard, and none of them work. Now that I found this video I might have 3 working clocks😄

[@zacharygay7598]

I just tried this on my 2000 Honda CR-V and I did a much worse job on it than you did but it still worked. Huge shout out to this video it absolutely worked for mine! That clock hadn’t been working for 15 years, thank you!!!

[@EddieCarrara1]

15 years Zachary? lol. Glad you got it fixed, and thanks for the feedback, next time don't wait so long to ask me to fix a problem with your car lol. 👍

[@phillipzx3754]

My sister's clock has been out for a few years on her 2001 CRV. Honda wanted $500 to replace it. I found one "rebuilt" on e-bay for 60 bucks and one at a local "Pick and Pull" for $16. But now that I've seen this video, and I have the tools, I'll be trying this fix tomorrow. Seems it's a common issue. Thank you for posting the video....9 years later. 🙂 Edit: This is the day after I watched this video. I saw one visible crack but I went ahead and reflowed each solder joint. It worked like a charm. Thank you.

[@EddieCarrara1]

Awesome Phil, it works 90% of the time lol, 🍺

[@scoop4321]

Hi, Eddie My clock was not working for years (99 CR-V) then I saw your video, and followed your instructions and it worked great the first time. Now, 3 years later, it's out again. So I will try to fix it a second time. Thanks for making the video and saving me $300 for a new clock.

[@GotoHere]

My clock has not worked for over 5 years. One of the circuits on my clock had broke off completely. Of course it was the most difficult one to solder on the far left side. I gave it my best shot. Plugged in and it did not work. One week later the clock lit up and kicked on at the exact time of day!! Truly a miracle.

[@FattyShoots]

Still helping people 8 years later! Just picked up an 01 CRV as daily and this fixed my clock. Just reflowed all the solder joints I could see and worked like a charm.

[@EddieCarrara1]

The video is evergreen Fatty Shoots lol. As long as these cars on on the road the fix will work 😂

[@slingshot1961]

Your a God dude! My clock hasn't worked in 5 years and Honda is smoking something if they think they have a fair price for a replacement. I re-soldered 2 joints and it works great. Thanks so much. It never would have been fixed without your video.

[@EddieCarrara1]

+slingshot1961 I made one persons day today, my job is done :) Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.

[@tomsuitt8831]

This was great--I pulled the clock from my wife's CR-V, and even though the solder didn't look cracked, I re-did it anyway, and it worked! Thanks again!

[@EddieCarrara1]

You're welcome Tom, glad it worked for you :)

[@ilratt1]

I used this video to fix the clock on my wife's 2001 CRV.. Took a whole 5-10 minutes tops and all is good. Took me longer to dig out my old soldering iron than it did to actually hit the spots on the clock with some new solder... Thanks.

[@EddieCarrara1]

Hi Ilratt1, did you notice how old my soldering iron is, lol. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it ilratt1.

[@NoK1dding]

Thank you for sharing this awesome, easy fix in video format. My 1999 c-rv clock has been out for four years. I had read similar instructions online a few years ago and assumed it was the full front panel that needed to come off. Thanks to your video, I was able to see how to actually complete the repair.

[@EddieCarrara1]

You're welcome No Kidding, glad I could help :)

[@paddywop1]

I check our local scrap yard and every Honda hD the clock removed. Finally found this video. Tried once and it did not work. Watched again and took second attempt and this time it worked. Thank you for great advice. 👍👍👍👍

[@EddieCarrara1]

Awesome Paddywop, thanks for taking the time to share you story 😊

[@jimtuuri6004]

Props to you Eddie, I bought a 1999 CRV about two weeks ago and that was one of the things on my to fix list. I bought a soldering iron for 10 dollars and the rest is history. Thank you!

[@EddieCarrara1]

jim tuuri Hey Jim, that's great!! Those $10 soldering irons are a lifesaver, lol. Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it :)

[@edwardlimtan]

wow. This helped me a lot. My clock has been busted for years. I already told the shop to fix it and they said it cant be fix anymore. And recently I search the internet and it lead me to this video. and my clock is now working, Thanks a lot eddie.

[@EddieCarrara1]

Hey Ed, you're very welcome, it's the simple fix that inspires people to try something out of their comfort zone. Thanks to people like you who share their stories, people who would never attempt this job in the first place, go for it, so thank you for taking the time to share your success :)

Big shout out to Eddie for letting us in on this pro tip! My clock hasn't been working for years and now works! Thanks man!

[@EddieCarrara1]

Yes Sir, glad I could help :)

[@ralphsears4659]

I tried it yesterday after the clock not working for ten years. So after watching your video soldered two of the ones you showed on the left side and it worked. At first thought it didn't but next day after driving it started to work just needs a few minutes I guess to warm up the capacitors or what ever you call them. Thanks for the video,I'm a happy camper

[@oscarescribano6120]

Hi Edi, Thank you very much for the post, It's been very useful. In the clock of my 1999 Honda CRV clock I found I had to resolder the 3 resistors, with the added difficulty that the resitor in the middle fell apart when I dismounted the electronic board. The interior connection point of that resitor is located under the the clock display so in order to access to it, I had to unsolder the 4 support pins of the lower side of the clock display, bend it upwards and solder the resistor. Afterwards, I could fix back in place the 4 support pins of the clock display. This was a delicate work and I am not expert with soldering so I was pretty sure that the fix would not work. But when I put everything back in place and turned on the key of the car .... voila!! it worked. The clok is a small thing but it really changes one's mood when getting in such a veteran but loved car... Cheers!

[@EddieCarrara1]

+oscar escribano That's awesome Oscar, thank you very much for the feedback, it gives other people hope :)

Thanks Eddie. I followed your instructions and it was fixed and back in the CR-V within 15 minutes. Great video!

[@JonFlyy]

I can't thank you enough Eddie. a new clock is upwards of 100 dollars, I fixed it in 5 minutes after buying a new soldering iron. thank you

[@mikkovuokko2509]

Good fix...thanks Eddie...like everyone else, it's been bugging me for years. What I did was first the front two on the left side, same as the video, plugged it in and nothing...so, I took it out, had a look at the back of the blocks. The extreme left was looking cracked in the back, put some solder down and "viola" the thing lit up. Good job Eddie...

[@EddieCarrara1]

Thanks Mikko, nice job on your parts to dig a little deeper and get er done :)

[@w6mes]

Eddie, thanks for the fix. When I was doing what you show, the darned resistor fell off completely! Shows that it was definitely not connected. I had to desolder the two lower standoffs of the display and tilt it up to get to the other side of the resistors. Resoldered the 3 resistors. Put the standoffs back in place. Resoldered them. Works great! Your awesome!

[@DARKLYLIT]

Hey thanks for the vid. My CRV clock hadn't been working in probably 5 years. The soldering was totally hooped on that first block, so 15 minutes later, my clock was up-and-running again. Nice when there's an easy fix.Thanks a lot!

[@robanthony1467]

Great post- noticed a completely broken connection on a 300 resistor- needed a magnifying glass to find it but once soldered, bench tested and worked just fine. Thank you for mentioning the bench test part- probably saved me a few steps. Also be careful with the clips- I broke two but the panel went in. Be patient when doing this part. Thanks again

As to the junkyard comment: while valid, I believe most of the first generation CR-Vs (1997-2001) have experienced the same problem, as the clock panel faces all these years of sunlight and heat exposure. Their clocks have died. With you helpful tutorial, most can be resurrected. BTW, mine has logged close to 400,000 miles.

Thanks for this, worked a charm and on exactly the same two places.

Hey that's great Jacques, I noticed a lot of them cracked in the same area. Thanks for the feedback.

I recall Honda wants about $200 for these. I have done this in a 1998 and 1999 Honda CRV that I owned. Neither took a very long time to do and was not very difficult. Of course, the first time was more time and more adventurous as I lost a clip. Honda likes them too! So take care as you snap them loose. I bought some yellow trim tools from Harbor Freight that I used the second time and that I have used for several other repairs. Well worth the $$$ if you are do-it-yourselfer. I also took out the board and resoldered the third chip first time and connections on back side. I saw on a forum somewhere that clock failure is extremely common in the 1st gen CRVs and improper solder was typical cause.

Good to hear Dan, thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it.

I have a 97 CR-V that originally did not have a clock. I bought one on Ebay but need the harness (pigtail). For the last three years I have searched the internet but can never find one. Any suggestions are much appreciated. I can pay $$$

Hi John, What I recommend is you call a salvage yard and see if they can locate one for you, I think that is your best option. Let me know if you find one, good luck :)
