    Trying to locate the earth points for VTS clocks, are they the 2 that are in the

    drivers side, just to the left hand side of the door? Below the dash bolt?

    Ive taken these 2 off sanded the area and the terminals and put back, but the dials are still slightly 'pissed' like weak numbers if that makes sense.

    They are digital and they just seem like they are being drained?

    There is one passenger side roughly same location, could be worth checking that but as Steve said it may well be the clock itself

    The rev counter was working fine the other day, but has since just died? Checked all earths and fuse's and so on.

    Mines doing the same, nothings working at all.. Some light up, when they're not supposed to etc.
