My car's dash clock only comes on when the key is turned to accessories, as well as my dash lights. Once I start her the clock rarely stays on, if she does it is intermittent.

Please help

Hello,

It sounds like the clock module is going out but to be sure we need to see if the clock is getting power and ground while it is not working. This will confirm the failure.

Here is a guide and the wiring diagrams for that clock:

Check out the diagrams (below).

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

Thank you, I resolved that issue, but I now have a airbag light on it blinks at random times and then stays on.

O boy we can help you get that fixed no problem. Can I ask how you resolved the clock issue? Also please start a new question for the airbag so the subject matter stays the same.
