I just installed a metra kit

everything works well....but there is a problem with the clock display..I keep adjusting the clock but it seems to lose minutes....I cant have the clock to show the right time

anyone had the same problem???

 

Does the clock reset or simply not keep the correct time (like it doesn't change every 60 sec)?
Is it the clock on the car's LCD or is this a separate clock display with the Metro Kit?
I never messed with the kit so I'm unfamiliar with its functions?

If its not keeping the correct time, first thing that comes to mind is a bad crystal on the circuit board.
Do you recall any static shocks/discharges while installing it?
If the kit comes with its own time display, it might have came with a bad crystal on the circuit board.

 

u need the metra cable and cd to update the 1.1 version to 1.4 version, search metra cable update...

 

Ahh... so this is a known issue with the Metro kit and early software versions?
Like I mentioned before, never messed with this kit.

 

yes it appears the metro kit has problems.

Several complaints from members.

 

yup u have to sign up on the update lisand it will be mailed to u by the last member who used it.... contact rollerblds

 

I emailed Metra with my kit number and they said it was the 1.4 version......I am from Montreal...so, I dont think the cable will came to me......
