Hi all

I have 99 sport and the digital clock is playing up similarly. On mine can't normally see the time but shine a torch onto the display and can see the time. so guessing it may be a backlighting type problem

You need to get your soldering iron out, there is a resistor that works loose/dry connections, its Resistor 510 its easy to see once you have opened the clock up.
