Dash i think is broken

[Jack92]

Hi guys,

after finally getting round the taking the clocks out today as they havent worked since i got the rocco it appears that somebody has snapped the ribbon cables.

can somebody just checl the images below that that is whats happened as i don't want to buy new clocks if i dont have to

(clocks off a 1992 mk2 scala)





think its snapped where the plugs go

thanks

Yep the plugs are supposed to be attached to the ribbon.
I can't remember if that ribbon just pushes in the back of the plugs?

[Jack92]

Dam that's not good and nah it won't, not on my case anyway has actually ripped new clocks needed

[PeteGLi]

The clips come apart, don't they?

[Jack92]

Basically my understanding is there are 4 plugs 2 for each side 2 are on the car wiring loom and the other 2 are of the clocks ribbon cable and they are the 2 that have been ripped off :(

Saw mr funk earlier today and explained it to him and he seemed to think the same with then being a bit beyond it lol

Early (pre 1988) MK2 Golf GTi's had the same clocks, gives you more options when trying to find replacements, also the Jetta GTi!

its a 1992 scirocco? does it have the old clocks? seems odd but if it does good as i can look for them :)

The later Golfs (and Jettas) had a clock set with only one plug in, the Scirocco was never fitted with Digifant (not in the UK) and all the associated parts, they stuck with good old-fashioned K-Jet.

cool beans ill have a look thanks mate

[Jack92]

just had a look and the golf clocks look different? the rev section is squared off? is this correct? don't really like the look to be honest

Hey guys,

right i can't seem to find any 2 plug clocks that are the same as mine.

Will any 2 plug work ie the ones with both the fuel and temp gauge in the rev limiter?

like this one - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Mk2-Sciroc ... 485b36f0fc

My clocks are the ones below if you want to compare.





thanks in advanced :)
