Thread: Stock radio question

  1. #1

    Question Stock radio question

    I was recently troubleshooting some annoying noise problem (Thanks Tone!) and disconnected my battery. After reprogramming all stations and resetting the clock I still have a problem. Before I disconnected the battery the clock would be displayed while the radio was playing. Now it only displays the radio station. Anybody know what magical button sequence is required to go back to displaying the clock all the time? Thanks in advance.
    Stick with what works.

    Lightbulb I know, I know!!

    Hold down the fm/am (disp) button then the "4" button at the same time until you hear the beep...

    I could swear I did this just the other day just by holding down the "disp" button....

    All that's required is that you hold down the FM-AM button down for about 3 seconds.

    Can't wait to get rid of mine

    I was just paraphrasing from the manual..

    If you want to veiw the time when the radio station is displayed you hold the (disp) button down for 2 seconds then the time will appear the go back to displaying the radio station as before. This is the same if the clock is showing, hold for 2 seconds then the station will show then go back to the clock.

    If you want to make a permanent display change, then you have to hold the (disp) and #4 button as stated..

    That's how both of my VX's work.

    Speaking of all of this....

    Should anyone who has upgraded radios still have the OEM units sitting about, email me.

    I am not really looking for the whole units...just the sheet metal ears (mounting brackets) off their sides.

    I have an idea that I want to try...but dont want to go messing about with mine unless I have replacements to go back to.


    Thanks,
