Alexandra, thanks for letting me know that you think the fix works.
Mark, yes, it is partly a satire of the difficulty of modern technology and partly a satire of people who will put up with any inconvenience rather than bother to leaf through a manual. Observational humor was the goal. I can change the clocks on most of my electronic devices without too much difficulty, but the technology of my mother's car is not self-evident without surfing the manual.
