not sure why it stays on, mybe you've put the live in the wrong place?

as far as the time goes, i think you (whilst ignition is off) hold the set/res button, then turn on ignition, and then use the 1000, 100, 10 and 1 buttons to to select the time

but dont hold me to that!!

i've just been told by E30_Aza that you have to put a pin into the small hole at the bottom of the OBC unit. then you can reset the time
