LAND ROVER B — Body

Clock Module

Brand: LAND ROVER
Type: B — Body
AI status
Completed
ready
Completed 100%
Page language: EN

Causes

  • Blown fuse or missing ignition/backup power supply to the clock module
  • Poor ground or corroded connector pins
  • Damaged wiring harness (open/short to battery or ground)
  • CAN/LIN network communication errors or bus short
  • Software/firmware corruption or module programming error
  • Internal hardware failure of the clock module (RTC oscillator, internal electronics)

Symptoms

  • Clock display incorrect, resets after shutdown, or shows dashes/blank
  • Date/time settings lost after battery disconnect
  • Warning messages about clock or related body functions
  • Dependent features (e.g., vehicle timer, alarm, remote start schedules) not working
  • Possible related communication warnings in diagnostic scan

What to check

  • Read and record all stored DTCs and freeze-frame data with a capable scan tool
  • Visually inspect clock module connector and wiring for corrosion, damage, or water ingress
  • Check fuses and relays supplying power to the clock module
  • Verify battery voltage at rest and with ignition on (12.0–14.5 V expected)
  • Measure module supply and backup voltages at the connector
  • Check chassis and engine ground points for tightness and low resistance

Signal parameters

  • Primary supply voltage: ~12 V (ignition ON ~12–14.5 V)
  • Backup/RTC supply: voltage present when vehicle off (if applicable)
  • Ground resistance:
  • CAN bus: CAN_H/CAN_L differential signals present and within expected voltage range (~2.5 V idle)
  • LIN/K-Line (if used): single-wire communication pulses when commanded
  • Module responds to OBD/diagnostic tool queries when healthy

Diagnostic algorithm

  1. Connect an OEM-level scan tool, read/record DTCs and module presence. Note any related network U-codes.
  2. Confirm battery voltage and health. Perform a load/charging system check if voltage is low or unstable.
  3. Inspect fuse(s) and relay(s) for the clock/body electronics; replace any open fuses and retest.
  4. Visually inspect connectors and harness for corrosion, bent pins, water damage or rodent chewing. Repair as needed.
  5. Probe the module connector: verify constant and switched power pins, backup power (if applicable), and ground. Repair wiring if values out of range.
  6. Check CAN/LIN continuity and bus integrity. Use an oscilloscope or bus analyzer to confirm valid frames and termination.
  7. If the module is not responding but power/ground and bus are good, attempt a module reset or reprogram/reflash to latest software per OEM procedure.
  8. If reflash fails or module fails to recover, replace the clock module with a dealer-supplied unit and follow required initialization/programming procedures.
  9. Clear DTCs and perform a full system scan; verify clock operation and proper communication during road or functional test.
  10. Re-check for reoccurrence of DTC and document repairs.

Likely causes

  • Lost or intermittent power (fuse, ignition feed, backup battery for RTC)
  • Faulty ground connection or high-resistance earth
  • CAN bus communication fault preventing module reporting
  • Module internal failure requiring replacement or reflash

Fault status

⚠️ Status
Clock Module fault detected — internal fault or communication/power issue preventing normal operation. Module may be unresponsive, displaying incorrect time, or reporting intermittent errors on the vehicle network.
🟡 Repair difficulty: Medium
⏱️ Diagnostic time: 1.0-3.0 hours
