Problem overview

Some Honda Fit owners report experiencing issues with the clock and date display resetting to January 1st, 2002, and being unable to adjust the settings. These problems often occur when the vehicle is not in Park or the ignition is not in the accessory or on position, which is necessary to access the clock settings. Additionally, some owners find that pressing and holding the CLOCK button until the display blinks, followed by pressing the Reset button, is required to adjust the time correctly. For models equipped with navigation systems, this process is similar, but owners may need to locate specific control buttons near the steering wheel in newer models (2018 – 2023) to access Clock Settings. Following these steps can help rectify the issue and restore the correct time and date display.
