How to Set the Clock on a 2001 Dodge Ram?

Now, we will show you the clock setting process on a  step by step basis. Read each step carefully. Set the clock without other’s assistance.

Let’s begin the steps.

Step 1: Turn on the Engine

It’s the first step, of course. Turn on the engine. You can’t set the clock while the engine is in off position.

I guess, it was not necessary to include as a step but still if someone of you tries with an off engine. So, it’s one type of alerting step for those.

Step 2: Search & Find out the Time Button

Now, go to the music system panel or the radio panel box. Search and find the time button.

In most cars, you will find it on the upper right corner of the music box panel. Carefully search if you can’t find the buttons.

Step 3: Press & Hold the Time Button

After you have found out the time button, press it and hold for some seconds.

Hold on the time button, until the clock on the dashboard blinks or keeps flashing. When you see the clock area on the dash blinking, leave the time button.

It’s ready to change.

Step 4: Turn the Knob on Left or Right

Now, you can see a knob below the time button. Or it may be in some other side also.

Move it on the left or right side, which means forward or backward. When you are moving the knob or the volume button, you will see the hour time is changing.

Bring the right time by moving the knob.

Step 5: Press the Knob

When you have set the number of hours, press the knob in the middle. You will see the blinking of the time goes to the minutes. It means now the minute number will be blinking or flashing.

Repeat the same as shown in step-4 and set the minute number.

After you press the knob after setting the minute number, you will see the clock is correctly set on your Dodge.

***In some Dodge vehicles such as the 2010 Dodge ram, you may not need to press the knob at the end. After setting the minute number, wait for at least 10 seconds. The clock will stop blinking after 10 seconds. And your time will be set. ***
