NEO auto Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Do Comanches come with the connectors for a quartz clock and ashtray light? Would like to install on my 1987. If not, is it difficult to wire them up? Thanks.
Minuit Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Yep, it plugs right in. The clock will look something like this when it's working:

DeWManche Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Wait, it depends on the year. I have a 92 MJ and have to custom wire in my quarts clock because I have no plug.
fiatslug87 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 In case you don't know, there's also a light for the cigar lighter that lights up the green ring around the base. It clips onto the metal base behind the panel.

Minuit Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 5 hours ago, NEO auto said: Anyone know if the ‘87 has the plug? Yes, as I said earlier. The clock moved to the radio for the '92 model year. Up to '91 and maybe some early 92s will have the plug, although it is different year to year. The 91 for instance has a unique clock with a different connector. Your clock will plug right in.

EdJarHead Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Mine doesn't keep time... anyone know if this might be a wiring issue or just a defective clock?

Check for a constant 12V input on one of the wires on its connector. If that's there, then the problem is most likely internal to the clock. Does it completely forget the time or does it run slow or fast?
EdJarHead Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Thanks... it loses time, and I haven't been driving it enough to really keep track of how much. I'll check the power, but I suspect it's just a faulty clock.
87MJTIM Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 My clock used to work sometimes. Sometimes I could see the display, other times it was dark. When is was displayed, it kept accurate time. That told me the clock work, but the light display was not working. I did Cruiser's dash panel ground upgrade. Now the clock displays all the time.

I had to remove the instrument cluster to find the harness. I also found the harness where the ash tray light plugs in, but the bulb is burnt out. I would like to replace it with an LED equivalent bulb. Anybody know what type of bulb I need? Also, I have these extra wires and lights from my trip to the junkyard. Can’t remember what they go to. Anyone know what they’re for? Extra wires, not sure what they go to. Interior or is finally put back together after figuring out my water leaks.
