When you say clock, do you mean Time? or do you mean mile reading? If its the clock its normal and you would have to replace it. If its on your cluster gauge (mile reading), try disconnecting the neg and reset the car. That might work.
If not you need a new one..

Sorry if it sounds wierd me answering most of your questions lol.

 

yes I mean the time. I havn't tried disconnecting the negative on my battery...it seems to be normal on subies...i guess i'll have to rely on my watch and phone for time...thanks for your reply. i thot it might have been a fuse but i doubt it since my odometer still runs fine

 

It is the fuse. double check. This has happened to me many time. There is a set of fuses under the hood and then a set right next to the steering wheel.

 

I've got the same problem.....i've checked my fuses under the hood and under my steering column........any other ideas to fix it?

 

does the clock have its seperate harness? if so, maybe you can just run a new power wire to it.

 

If the dash-pod clock is not working on your 02, it's likely due to a bad solder connection on the circuit board inside the clock itself. This is very common. If you have the skills and tools you can take it apart and resolder the bad connection yourself, otherwise scan the classifieds for a used clock. They are frequently for sale by people who installed gauges in the clock location, they go for around $20-25.
