#1: Clock Light Not working? Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 1:55 pm ---- Hello everybody,
Well its my first peugeot 206 and its a 1.4 LX V reg. Well today i was just fiddling around with the clock dash. And i decided to remove the dash (i was bored and trying to waste some time waiting for somebody ) anyway i removed the dashboard of the clock and hazard light. however i didnt remove any wiring. I put the dash cover back on and it all clicked in place. when i started the car, the clock light didnt come on. Ive searched around google etc but i havent found any useful advice.
Could somebody please help me?
Thank you in advance.

a simple test to know if its the bulb or/and display not working is to shine a torch on the screen, if you see the time slightly then the bulb is not working. Last edited by NorthantsBen on Wed Oct 05, 2011 2:00 pm; edited 1 time in total

pull the cover back off, undo the two torx screws holding the clock in, pull it forward, twist the bulb until it comes out, twist the new bulb in and reassemble.
#11: Re: Clock Light Not working? Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 2:47 pm ---- Does the torx screwdriver have to be a certain size? i dont have these so ill have to go buy them...
also any ideas of where i could get this bulb from?
#12: Re: Clock Light Not working? Author: DanPug206, Location: BirminghamPosted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 3:31 pm ---- I'm in great Barr so about 5 mins on the m5/m6
Yeah you'll need a torx screw set if owning a 206, all interior parts are held on by them basically
#13: Re: Clock Light Not working? Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 1:58 pm ---- Problem Solved!
Torx screwdriver £2.99
LED Bulb £1
thinking about it the led bulb was a rip off! but the time i wasnt paying much attention.
It took me around 15minutes but in the end i got it. I was scared about breaking the circuitboard. But i pulled through and behold there is light with the clock.
