I finally got it in to the docking bay and figured out why the clock doesn't run but it still lights up(photocell controlled hull and engines backlite), first of all it runs of 3AAA(4.5V) but the actual clock runs off 1.5V and there is a circut that steps it down. What is the best way to do this, I recently bought a Adjustable Voltage Regulator(RS#276-1778) will this work and how do I make it work? Thanks for any help. 8)

I wish it was so easy, I took the adapter out and put a AA in the clock and it worked fine so it is defintely the step down circut, the way I look at is to install a single AA holder close to the deflector dish which would show once it hangs on the wall. But I would really like to fix so it works like OE and I don't have to drill a hole in it. :wink:
