Clocks not working

[Steveouzts]

Same clock problem here started yesterday. FL 2015 3.8, btw

SOLUTION:

There are 11 pages of instructions for the multitude of fuse boxes throughout the car. From the IMs I concluded that the multimedia system controls the clock. I've unfortunately learned that nowadays every thing is microprocessor based (i.e. some kind of computer), so generally a solution will be to 'reboot' the micro-processor. Pages 7-66 and 7-77 denote the Instrument panel fuse panel. The 20 Amp 'multimedia' fuse on this panel did the trick. I unplugged it for about 20 seconds, plugged it back in and the clock restored display, with the 'analog' clock quickly spinning into position. For my 2015 car, its the fuse panel to the left of the steering column, yellow (20A) fuse in 3rd column counting from the left, 2nd fuse down.

Let's hope is doesn't go haywire again.

Didn't work for me

It happened over a weekend with many dealers closed. I wonder how many service departments will be getting phone calls tomorrow.

I was at the dealer for an oil change on the first really cold day of the year. While I was there, three people came in because the low tire pressure warning came on that morning. They were bewildered.

My time was FUBAR as well yesterday - cleared itself up this AM.

Mine stopped working this morning as well-

I'm just wondering what is going to fix it...some update?, Do we need to take it in? Just wait a few days? I gotta believe that this is pretty widespread and someone at Hyundai will take note and they will fix. Guess I'll just give it a few days.

My digital and analog clocks are not working. The digital show blank:blank and the analog shows the wrong time. the clock controls are grayed out on the screen (yes I was parked and had the audio off). Any one know what might be wrong. No other issues with the display system. Maps are working.

My car developed the IDENTICAL problem sometime between Wednesday and Today. My car was in an underground parking lot much of that time, and I was at a family function, so I was distracted. But here is what I can tell you.

1. While I was driving in traffic, with my audio system off, Sirius XM somehow took control of my car's audio system and started blasting at high volume as subscription offer. Almost caused me to have an accident. Outrageous that an external organization can take control of any part of your vehicle.

2. Shortly thereafter, I started up my car and the analog clock started spinning around, eventually settling on the wrong time.

3. The controls in the settting/clock menu are greyed out and no longer work.

4. The time no longer displays on the navigation screen.

Could you let me know if you have a lapsed Sirius XM subscription and if you too had your audio system "taken over"? These issues may be related.

I do have a subscription, but not lapsed and did not experience any audio issues...just the same clock issue.

Are you sure it was "off" and just not receiving? I don't see how they can turn it on and select the Sirius button. While parked in that garage there would be no signal.

If, however, your subscription lapsed you obviously cannot listen, but the radio will default to channel 1 and give the message asking you to subscribe. When it does than you can easily go to the FM or AM functions.

I came here yesterday with the same problem, but posters here gave me the answer that worked. It was.......Remove the SD card, wait 30-60 seconds, then replace it. It did not work the first try, but did on the second. Make sure you do this with the car running. Good luck.

YES. Removing and reinserting the SD card worked. Thanks

Also worked for me on the 2nd try. Thanks!

I just reset my SD card as well. Car was outside with good signal. Started the car, pulled out the card and kept it out for about 60 seconds and reinstalled- date and time display came back and reading correct! Hope it stays....

Currently in New Orleans area
2015 3.8 with ultimate package

Had the same issue as everyone else concerning the digital clock and day/date.
I took the SD card out. Then, I pressed the small reset button and held that down for about 20 seconds. My Genesis is the 2016 with the base radio. Make sure you keep the SD card out while you’re pressing the reset button. Then, re-insert the SD card and you’ll see the screen go blank for a little while. Mine took about 30 seconds to reboot and then the correct date and time appeared.

Called the dealer. who said that, on my 2015 Genesis, a safer procedure is simply to press the reset button. I tried it several times, but it did not work.
Then (duhh!) I drove outside and made sure the system was actually seeing the satellite by entering a local address to navigate to. Again, I pressed the reset button for maybe 5 seconds. After I released the button, the system rebooted. At first, there was still no time displayed and the analog clock was still off. But after about 15-20 seconds, the clock spun to the correct time, and the NAVI screen displayed the time as well.

Thanks to everyone at this great forum for pitching in and providing info.

Mine just did it by itself.... No intervention necessary.

Interesting!

Reset without sd car removal worked

 

[Ell Y]

You guys are the best.

I took the sd card out twice at somebody's suggestion and it worked.

Thanks all!

Thanks for the information it worked for me Scotty from La Porte IN

I live in TN and noticed that the digital clock stopped working on the 18th of August. Same issue as in all the comments I have read.
