E51 E51 How to change the clock

I don't understand my clock. When I bought my Elgrand 3 years ago the clock was 13 minutes slow. Now it's 8 ?? I thought the time was sent through by satellite. I imagine I will have the correct time in about 5 years.
Certainly in the S3 you can adjust the offset within the menu to make it correct. That’s as long as you have done the NZ conversion to English
 
Pretty sure mine is lol
 
Me "I would like to know the time"
Elgrand "time is just a magazine"
 
Luckily for me in QLD the clock is only 1 hour ahead!.. Now I just tend to show up to places early!:laughing:
 
Oh, the clock! I thought this thread was something else and had my hopes high.
 
If you have an E51 Elgrand with the built in Sat Nav option, the clock is set by the GPS system in Japan and the clock will show Japanese local time. This is not an easy thing to change, and can be quite involved, but thanks to @Elgrandonaut, a how to guide on setting the time is now available! (Photo for proof)

The guide for doing this can be found here --> https://forum.elgrandoc.uk/threads/...local-time-Elgrand-e51-with-navigation.16807/

The other method to change the time is to replace the clock display itself, which you can find a how to guide on again here --> https://forum.elgrandoc.uk/threads/internal-clock-2002-e51-highway-star.622/

This does not affect the non-GPS models as far as I am aware as they have buttons that you can use to change the time. At the end of the day, if there are no buttons on the clock to change Hours/Minutes, then you will need to use the guide above to replace... or just learn to take 9 hours off for UK time.
