Bad clock = check engine light to come on??? '91 C2
 

'91 C2 with 80K miles, a few weeks ago the warning buzzer came on, upon checking the manual: abs unit or brake line pressure

abs relay was very hot, replaced it with a new one...check engine light came on, took the car to a mechanic who used the Bosch tool and said everything checked out okay....

mechanic mentioned that a failing clock could cause some of the electrical warning light/buzzer problems due to the way it is wired...

is this crazy talk?? :)

I feel bad, I sold the car to my father-in-law a few months ago and I never had any problems with the car for the 6 years or so we owned it...

thanks

yes, there is a lot of information about the xmas tree lights when the clock soldering is cracked... goto rennlist you'll find your answer there but let me make it easy for you, I'll embed the actual webpage with real information about this effect...
