Analogue clock is wrong

[Flukez]

I have an e-class with COMMAND, the analogue clock is out by 5 minutes but I can only see how to change it from the "time" menu in the comand unit which only allows a change in 30 minute increments.

Any idea please?

Use the Command menu

The setting in the command menu is programmable in one minute intervals and changes the analogue clock when you change the command time and press enter.

There is a neat setting in COMAND to get the time from the satellite signal - the menues are tortuous but it's in there somewhere!!

Hmm,

My comand APS always gets the time from the GPS system and only lets me move the time in 30 minute intervals.

Any ideas ?

I feel like the blind leading the blind since I'm no expert on COMAND but if the time is received from the GPS signal, how can it be out by 5-mins ?

Thanks for the help Barry.

The digital time in comand is 100% correct as you'd expect from the sats but the time displayed on the analogue clocke is 5 minutes fast
So for example if the digital readout in comand shows the time as 19.30 the analogue clock will be showing 7. 35, Ive tried resetting the comand unit and even took the fuse out but it just gets the right time from the GPS and then sets the clock 5 minutes wrong again!!!

OK, I see. Sorry I haven't been of better assistance.
Well how about trying to set the analogue clock from the menue settings in the instrument cluster rather than through COMAND. I'm sure these are in minute intervals rather than the 30-min increments you mentioned in the COMAND menue.
I can't think of anything else other than a trip to the dealer - hope you are in warranty!
