I would like to know which buttons to push on my 2008 Chevy cobalts clock to set the time

Without Date Display
AM/FM Base Radio with a Single CD Player
This type of radio has a button for setting the time. You can set the time by following these steps:
Turn the ignition key to ACC/ACCESSORY or ON/RUN. Press the knob, located in the center of the radio, to turn the radio on.
Press the button until the hour begins flashing on the display. Press the button a second time and the minute begins flashing on the display.
While either the hour or the minute numbers are flashing, turn the knob, located on the upper right side of the radio, clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the time.
Press the button again until the clock display stops flashing to set the currently displayed time; otherwise, the flashing stops after five seconds and the current time displayed is automatically set.
To change the time default setting from 12 hour to 24 hour, press the button and then the pushbutton located under the forward arrow label. Once the time 12H and 24H are displayed, press the pushbutton located under the desired option to select the default. Press the button again to apply the selected default, or let the screen time out.

With Date Display
Single CD (MP3) Player
This type of radio has a button for setting the time and date.
To set the time and date, follow these instructions:
Turn the ignition key to ACC/ACCESSORY or ON/RUN. Press the knob, located in the center of the radio, to turn the radio on.
Press the button and the HR, MIN, MM, DD, YYYY (hour, minute, month, day, and year) displays.
Press the pushbutton located under any one of the labels that you want to change. Every time the pushbutton is pressed again, the time or the date if selected, increases by one.
• Another way to increase the time or date, is to press the right SEEK arrow or FWD button.
• To decrease the time or date, press the left SEEK arrow or REV button, or turn the knob, located on the upper right side of the radio.
The date does not automatically display. To see the date press the button while the radio is on. The date with display times out after a few seconds and goes back to the normal radio and time display.

Hope this helps ! hope you had a very Merry Christmas an have Happy New Year

My gear shifting lights and cig lighter don't work. Any lights on the Center console don't work. I checked the fuse box and they seem fine, although I cant find where those lights would be. ...

All I can say is that I think it may be a wire or wires in the dash area. Mine forces me to drive with a separate light to see speedometer. The radio goes on frequently and changes itself from cd to tape to radio. Driver heated seat no longer works. See if some of your lights work with the headlights off. Some of mine do. I have had mechanics look, but at $90 an hour, I pull em out after a few hours and no results...
Good luck!

Low tire pressure light wont go out

The Low Tire Pressure Indicator must be reset using the Radio. This can only be performed if you have the factory radio installed in the vehicle. This vehicle does not come with an active tire pressure management system, and as such, this light must be reset manually.
1.) Turn Radio Off 2.) Hold down disp button for 10 seconds 3.) Setup Menu should display 4.) Scroll through menu to view "Tire Pressure" (use seek buttons) 5.) Select the Tire Pressure option (Press Radio Button 1) 6.) Reset should be displayed on screen (Press disp button) 7.) Tire Pressure Light should reset

2004 PT cruiser, Can't change the radio station

just like any computer, unplugging it for 30 seconds or so may cause it to revert to initial settings.... if you take the battery terminal off you will reset everything and that is not necessary.... find the fuse for the radio and yank it.... see if it helps. IF NOT, probably a burned programming mode... hope you like that station....

Radio wont work

wfdyer,

go buy a new radio. You can usually get free installation. If you are a do it yourselfer. Then go to crutchfields web site. They are great, they give you the adaptor plates and wire harness to go from what ever radio you get to the car, with no splicing (cutting and reconnecting of wires) They will tell you what radios will not work and tell you what ones will.

Sorry to say it but you have power to the radio, and there are really 3 things a radio needs to work. power, speakers, and a signal. you can check the antena to make sure its not broken or disconnected. but most of the times its the radio
