Hi Guys,
I have a weird problem, with a watch which contains a Hughes module...actually, I have TWO of them, with Hughes modules, which have the same problem: you can set the time and date on the watch, but it will NOT advance the time, under normal conditions. HOWEVER, if you hold down the button so that the seconds count off (and they do, and at just the right frequency, 60 seconds per minute), once it gets around to "00", then and ONLY then, will the minutes change/advance! Otherwise, you can leave the watch(es) alone for HOURS, and come back, and they seem to be frozen in time! That's pretty odd, huh? It's like, the modules want to work, and the displays are nice and bright, but unless you force it into the seconds mode, that's the only way to get the time to advance, otherwise. Any ideas? Ohh, and I did try cleaning the circuit boards with alcohol & fibre-tipped pen, to no avail. I learned that trick back in January, when your very helpful members suggested doing that, to solve a problem I was having with another Hughes module, back then...and, it worked! But, not this time. Thanks, Dodger
