im sure that there is a ground around by the cluster and there is some sort of ground down by the radio on the back of the metal console hope that helps you out

 

make sure the "backup" fuse in the underhood fuse box is not blown ...

You don't have the 12v constant wired up.

I know on radios it's a green wire. Not sure about the clock.
I'm assuming it has 3-4 wires.
1) Power,
2) return maybe,
3) ground
4) constant. But it could certainly have two.

Bottom line, you don't have constant power to the clock.

 

thanks i didnt think about that way
