Vette(s): 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Just bought it from my uncle who owned it since 1971. Fathom green, green interior. 350/300, T400.
On my '69 I have no power to my gauge cluster clock wire, all the other gauges work, the clock is on the same fuse, right? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Matt

The clock runs on 20A fuse with the courtesy lights. If you have swapped out your old clock with a quartz replacement check that fuse. If it is an original, it may have just given up. If had a lot of wires in the gage cluster area just break off because of age. You should have 12v DC to the clock at all times. to the orange wire. Also check the lighter, I think it runs off the same circuit.

It was the fuse, I'm a bonehead.
