have not done it myself yet so can't speak from experience, but from what I read there is a loose connection that needs to be re soldered. pretty easy job from the sound of it once you get In there. I can speak from experience (wrapping my interier) its prettt easy to get there. Good luck let me know if you end up doing it. Share your experience as I will be tackling this project soon.

Swap a new clock or open that one up and resolder the LEDs. Takes about 10 minutes to get the clock out. It'll blink for a while then eventually not work anymore, super common issue on these cars. I swapped mine out for one out of a wrecked G not long ago.

You need to remove part of the console. This video shows you how to remove it. Once you've got all the screws off the back of it and the front metal trim piece comes off the clock slides out, then just reverse the steps after. Shouldn't take you more than 10-15 minutes.
