I have been watching these clock repair videos for quite sometime .Nothing ever comes close to yours. I am so thankful to you for your great video. Please keep posting such useful videos.
Thank you very much! This video is really helpful. People can repair their own clocks at home. As well as it helps to avoid throwing old damaged clocks into garbage or side of road or street. Repairing and restoring old clocks helps to keep the environment clean and healthy as well as avoid wastage of old ones.
@@TripplikitElectronics Please upload a video that shows connecting and installing electronic chime that hourly play melody and count the hours to the quartz clock moment.
@@TripplikitElectronics People are still not aware that the old damaged quartz clock moments can be repaired so that they are tempted to throw it out. When people become aware that quartz clock moments can be repaired they try to repair and restore dead quartz clocks. This video will make people alert about it so such temptation is avoided.
Thank you sooo much. Having realised I bought the wrong sized mechanism, I eventually managed to combine the broken original with the new one and made it work. Only took me four hours!!! But I now have my clock back. Normally my husband changes the hour, but he’s away and I successfully and spectacularly tried it myself, only to drop the mechanism part directly onto the top of a wine bottle. The bottle was fine (could’ve been worse), but the mechanism fell apart! Thank you, thank you.
Wow very helpful and clear vid! Had a sudden urge to fix my parents' wall clock that hasn't been working in years. Saw your video and with trial and error on the parts, I found that the problem was inefficient pressure on the power board! Got some tape in there and now it's perfect! Thanks for your guide on how to assemble it!
Thank you for this video!! I have the exact same Mechanism in my clock,which had not been working for a while so I decided to take it apart and with your helpful video I managed to get it back together and it's now working, so thanks heaps😊
Thanks for this mate. 👍 👍👍 Although Alibaba (and their '8 weeks if you're lucky' shipping) has lots of these mechanisms, you need to be precise as to dimensions and diameters, and the particular one I need is unavailable, so I pulled my mechanism apart to find that one of the battery-to-PCB contacts had corroded. In doing the pull down, bits went everywhere, of course, so your video helped me get it all back together again after I addressed the corroded contact. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much. My mechanism came a part whike trying to clean the circuit board and connectors and I refused to purchaseanother cheap China made mechanism. Your video was very helpful in helping me reassemble and get it working properly. Cheers.
The driver IC divides the 32768Hz crystal down to create pulsed AC with alternating plus-minus pulses every second. The permanent magnet rotor has north on 180 degrees an south on the other 180 degrees. The four points on the electromagnet are 90 degrees apart and when energized will pull the rotor to be centered between the two like poles of the electromagnet. When the pulse ends, the electromagnet de-energizes and the rotor rebounds to its resting position off center of the point at which it was when energized. Gaps between the rotor and stator are slightly smaller at the two points anticlockwise from the energized position, causing the rotor to move predictably anticlockwise at the next pulse which has opposite polarity. In other words, this is an AC motor with predictable resting positions.
Thanks for your knowledgable explanation. I didn't look into how the actual "motor" works. Sounds interesting - perhaps I should do another video on the subject.
Good video mine done that and after finding this video is happily working again clear instructions . Mine did not have the copper bit in the end but plastic
Thanks a lot for all your efforts. I got mine apart and one of the wheels had some broken cogs. Hence why it was ticking and only worked for a little while. Thanks again and keep safe you and yours.
That's interesting. I know the cogs are only plastic but I wouldn't have thought the "motor" would have the power to damage them. Maybe someone used too much force trying to set the time.
Perfect! I didn't know how the electro-magnetic mechanism worked...only that there is the quartz crystal controlled oscillator. Now I can set about taking my old LL Bean ( seiko) moon phase mecanism apart. It "fibbulates) instead of doing a full tick...so maybe clean and lube will do it. Thumbs Up !
I had one where the battery had a slight leak and it creaped up the metal strips to the pcb, made a mess of the copper pads. But after a clean, the clock started ok :-D I have also had ones that stop for no reason, the clock divider+coil driver must have been dead.
I've always just thrown them away up to making that at video. That one was just bad contacts and it's still going so, in future, I'll at least have a look inside. Congratulations on recovering one after a battery leak!
Por isso os relógio não duram muito tempo. pra que, não tem necessidade de usar pilha alcalina em um relógio de parede. as comuns tem uma ótima duração e evita vazamentos...
I got one that seems to work fine for a few weeks/months and then suddenly begins losing time. When I check the battery voltage, it's at around 1.4V (new one read 1.6V). I've cleaned the PCB with IPA and even touched up the solder joints with my iron. The gears don't seem to be dirty or look damaged. It's difficult to troubleshoot since I have to wait potentially weeks or months to see if what I did made any difference. Not really sure what's up with it.
They are so much built down to a price it's probably poor assembly or a poor quality part wearing out early. Look like you've tried everything to repair it so you'll probably just have to replace it.
There are only 2 possible causes for the failure. Plastic expanding or Battery replacement method. Because the clock just sits on the wall there is no physical contact other than changing the battery. The rechargeable battery may have a larger diameter than non rechargeable which may push the contact off causing the loss of power. The 2nd clock must have cheaper plastic that's wearing or expanding. The magnet gear is not seating in the socket so its slipping. The replacement hands could be binding causing the magnet gear to wear the points causing it to jump the teeth. It may need a shim to hold it in place.
Thanks for the information. You sound a lot more knowledgable than me on these clock mechanisms. I shall certainly make use of your information on the next one I look at.
What typicaly kills them is the shaft piviots (bearings) wear loose to a point where the mechnism binds up and stops . I have seen people put a tiny drop of clock oil on these points and get them back running again, I have also seen the battery bars corrode make bad contact and stop them as well. but if the bearings are worn badly enougth oiling wont fix them . its important to note these mechnisums do come with the option of the threaded shaft that goes thorugh the clock face having a number of diffrent lengths , you can get them with the option of having a swinging fake pendulum, some tick off the seconds and that noise anoys some people , some run second hand smooth and dont tick as they operate ..
I always thought you shouldn't oil plastic bearings. Was I wrong? They are so cheap that once the bearings get worn it's probably best to just replace them. There are so many options available for quartz clock mechanisms it is quite hard to choose the correct one for your application. I must admit I've never had one with a fake tick or a fake pendulum!
@TripplikitElectronics Plastic can be lubricated, but it requires a very careful choice of lubricant. A conventional oil or grease will act as a solvent against the plastic. Silicone and PFPE oils are generally safe on all plastics.
I have 2 that are late and I have already disarmed it several times without a possible solution, as I saw in a video, increasing the voltage intensity is corrected, and this is achieved by placing an extra battery in parallel that would add intensity while maintaining the same voltage.
@@TripplikitElectronicsI think the pulses are rather high current created by discharging a capacitor through the stator coil. A degraded capacitor could prevent sufficiently strong pulses from reaching the stator.
I have got a problem with my clock, the second hands got ticking then it have stop ticking and the time are going really fast. Do you know why? I have been advised to replace all of these gears which I don't think I would need to?
I have never heard of that problem before! It would probably be cheaper to replace the clock mechanism rather than buy new gears. I would actually be very surprised if you could find new gears to buy.
Sadly I think these clock mechanisms are so cheap that it is not worth anyone keeping spares for them. It is basically a throw away item. Sadly the same applies for considerably more expensive units - see the Gigaset DECT phone handset I attempted to repair in October 2020.
Cleaning those pressure electrical contact tabs should go a long way toward making the clock reliable. if you don't have contact cleaner...then rubbing alcohol and a paper towel will do it.. dry with the a paper towel because it is mildly abrasive which is good.
Na maioria das vezes o problema é só de mau contado na saída de alimentação das placas para as ferragens de suporte das pilhas. Pode-se acertar o contato, colocando novamente a pressão adequada ou soldando um fio na saída da placa para a ferragem, usando ferro de soldar com potência acima de 40W e um bom fluxo de solda.

Quartz Chime. When I hear the little "click" at the top of the hour just prior to the chime going off, the chime does not sound. In your expert opinion, what is the problem?
Sorry, I have not taken one apart that has a chime. I'm not an expert in clocks - I just really took them apart out of curiosity. If it goes "click" it sounds like the chime mechanism is trying to work. Maybe the bell or whatever that makes the chime has become detached and the striker is no longer hitting it. Just a guess.
Gracias por publicar! excelente video...! el problema de mi reloj de pared, es que el filamento de bronce de la bobina esta suelto. No lo he podido reparar.
Hi Jay, The fault on the one I took apart was that the battery holder was making poor contact onto the PCB. I just had to clean the contacts - easy fix. Generally, if there is anything seriously wrong with them, it won't be worth fixing because replacements are so cheap. I only really took them apart out of interest and to make a video.
I have a Braun BC02BL clock. It doesn't work well. The minute hand doesn't move and remains ever in the same position. The seconds hand works well. What about my problem? Does someone know?
Sounds like the minute hand is stuck somehow or not pushed on to the shaft possible. If the seconds and hours are working it would imply the mechanism is OK. I had one that always showed something to or something past 6 - yes the hour hand had come loose and dropped down to the bottom under gravity!
@@TripplikitElectronics thanks for your answer. Only the seconds hand works well. The minutes one works for a while (5-15 minutes) and then it stops in the same position. I'd like to open the clock, but I'm afraid to broke it. I'll ask a watchmaker, hoping it is not an expensive problem :(

I built an alarm clock using an Arduino and I could easily set one "second" to be 1030mS. The electronics on a quartz clock puts out a pulse every 1s. Perhaps you could find something to put a pulse out accurately at a slightly longer duration. The clock electronics is timed by a quartz crystal. It might be possible to connect capacitors to the crystal to make it run a bit slow. Thanks - interesting problem.
@@TripplikitElectronics i tried 33 and 47 pf ciramic capacitor It stopped working Then i tryed 5 and 7 pico farad i keeps working without slowing down Should i connect it in Series?
Thanks for that Mark. As you probably guessed I'm not an expert with clock mechanisms. I'm more used to pouring oil liberally on my bicycle to stop it rusting up. I'll remember in future - a tiny bit on the shaft.
Part of the point I make in the video is that I've found cheap clock mechanisms (and I'm sure that includes Poundland ones) to be really unreliable. That's why I bought a relatively expensive one - which is still keeping perfect time.
