You'll have better luck on supraforums.com. This site is for Mk3 supras, not Mk4 supras, so we won't have much experience with what you're doing.

When you unlock the car you need to turn the lock twice to unlock the passenger door as well.... that is, if it's anything like some of the newer Toyotas I've driven. It's a security feature.

My Tacoma does that.

I wish it would do what the VW's do... You know, holding the key turned in the tumbler will put down the windows.

Sometimes I also think VW never meant for that to happen, but would never admit it.

Known electrical problems... VW probably crossed wires, and when they went to unlock the doors it just happened, and they thought "Hey, lets make it do that to all of them!"

Same for my dad's '93 LandCruiser and his 2003 (I think that's the year) Camry.

Funny, my '71 Super Beetle's locks don't operate the windows... ROFL!



Back on topic: As for the clock, have you checked all the fuses? Next step would be checking the wiring up to the clock... from there on you'll need to go somewhere with a MKIV section as Zach recommended. They'll be more knowledgeable about the specific of that model Supra.

haha.. and why do you think this?
An old friend of mine used to own a GTi vr6, which he titled "Hitler's Revenge."

This thing was a wiring nightmare when he bought it... I'm not sure if it was tampered with (owner) or if it was like that stock.

But that car burst into flames 5 months after he bought it.

I forgot MKIV's had a clock there for awhile. I see so many boost gauges there you'd think they're stock.
