Did you plug it in all the way? lol
Check fuses, if not those then find a clock from a junkyard 4runner.

I am pretty sure I plugged it in all the way, and yes I did check the fuses. Maybe I need to check again, any idea which one would be for the clock? The black wiring harness on the top seems as though it would also control the hazards, which work still...not sure.

The clocks are pretty fragile...well the part that breaks is. Sometimes taking it out, and yanking around on it is enough to make the little springs fall apart. Search "clock repair" and you'll see what needs done. (this may or may not fix your problem, but then you at least know you have a working clock, and it's not the clock that's bad)

the 99 and 00 clocks are known for going out, its not worth getting them "fixed" just look for one from a junk yard or check ebay.

Why? Once it's fixed, it's fixed. If you get a junkyard one, it could go out the next day. They are a poor design, but easily remedied by eliminating the flimsy spring contacts with soldered pins.
Like SKIDMRK and others have said....it probably is the fake socket throwing a wrench in your works.

this seems to make some sense, however I am a bit confused on what 'fake socket' means. Anybody have photos to describe what they are referring to? Are there two sockets behind there that fit the wiring harness?

So am I understanding in that there are two seperate male plugs, one large (for the hazards) and one small (for the clock), of which I may just not have plugged in the one for the clock???
...because the posts earlier were leading me to believe that there are two receiving plugs and one is a 'fake'

My clock failed and I went and bought a junk yard unit. Well that was coming off and on and died, I sent that clock to a shop on eBay and for 25 bucks the clock works flawlessly.
