Likely needs fresh batteries. You can get at the back of the clock thru the cupboards on either side of it.

The whole clock mirror thing is held in place by very strong velcro :-)

Clock

If your Dolphin is like my old one (1998), the wall next to the slide is tall panel mirrors. The clock, as someone said, is accessed by CAREFULLY removing the glass mirror panel. Use a flat blade paint scraper to get behind the mirror and pry gently. Velcro is industrial strength, so even, steady pressure is needed.

There is a National RV owners group on this site which can be of even greater help. Through FMCA there are several NRV Owners Clubs across the USA, Here in SoCal are The Dolphins, The Dolphins. I suggest you join one, ore more of them and go camping with them Great bunch of folks, and LOTS of info on Nationals!

Good luck, and.......

Happy Trails!

Darryl

Took mine out the same way and put a picture back in its place. Not that hard.

Start at a corner. I didn't use any tools because I didn't want to chip the mirror. Once you hear the velcro starting to release work another corner. Important to use even pressure. One of those jobs that after you do it the first time, you can't believe how easy it was. Good luck with her.

Took mine out :-) Managed a dvd player! The counter below has the biggest monitor it could handle. Dumped the tv over the driving area. More storage :-)
