I sure remember when that happened to me, I had to bang up the center console and the clock came back Cool but then it goes out after like 10 miles.
A while back, I had written a topic on it and other members also encounter this problem too.
I called the dealer and they quoted me about 300 for a clock. Is bs
The only way to really to 'Fix' the clock is to just replace the whole clock. I try to fix it, I took the clock out and strip the whole thing apart and still wouldn't come back on.
Try your local junk yard and see if you can find one, as long as is from a 96-02 4runner or a Tacoma you would be good. I brought mine for under 40 and it works great. One thing I do ask for is warranty or return policy.
Other than that good luck on finding one.
