Clock stopped and can’t turn on the radio/CD player

Started the Disco 3 this morning but couldn’t turn the radio or CD player on also noticed the clock had stopped. Got to work and noticed that the light didn’t go out showing up the stopped clock. Any ideas on how to turn the light out and turning the radio on and changing the timer/clock. Thanks Mark

Took out fuses 39 and 42 but they weren’t the ones so not sure which number is the right fuse. How do I do a hard reset........is it positive terminal off the battery???? Thanks

If the display is on and the clock is "stopped" do the following

With power going to the radio (ignition in position 2) take the radio (as opposed to the amp) fuse out - it's 52, count to 5 and put it back in. The radio should come back on.

I've had this little foible before and the fix works every time

Yay..........sorted it.....for now lol. I tried the no.52 fuse but it didn't work so i had a look again at the pictures on the rear of the glove compartment and tried no.53 which when pulled out turned off the light and clock. Put it back after the count of 5 and it worked normally again. Don't know how long for but at least that's another notch on the Landrover Discovery 3 pole. Just need to undo the bottom of the glove compartment as i dropped the red fuse clipper....big hands are no good for the small fuse compartment lol.

Disconnect +' Ve and -'ve terminals from battery,

And use a screw drive of spanner to make a circuit, between the leads, then reconnect to battery.
