      So can you tell me what you had to do to repair this? I have 1 like it that doesn't run and it seems like a common problem with these movements.
      Thanks

      @@marktitlover I had to completely replace the movement. That’s pretty much all I had to do.

    This clock got me into mantel clocks. I now have a Medbury 6W and am very happy. Got it for an absolute steal for $100. It is in such good condition that it even has the original price tag from 1960.

    Maybe the pendulum crutch needs adjustment as well.

      Well this clock has the movement with the escapement that is on Howard Miller movements

    I would say that if this had a balance wheel, it could be loose.

  • @deathplaysrobloxmore3602

    Maybe try taking out the movement, get a different escapement piece or wheel whatever it is called... when you get the new escapement piece or wheel, put the movement back in and see if that works.

    • @ogClockTV
      @ogClockTV  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It wouldn’t run due to a piece in the escapement platform that was missing. There was no way I would be able to get that piece out and put a new one in it.

    i think it needs a personal key for it and i have a question i understand that clock has two keys but why clock does have three key holes thats weird

    • @ogClockTV
      @ogClockTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of the newer Westminster chime clocks have 3 key holes. One is for the westminster chime itself, one is for the time, and the other one is for the hourly strike. The other one you are talking about has 2 key holes. One runs the whole chime and the other one is for time.
      Thanks for asking

    • @ogClockTV

      On this clock, I am not too sure. When the escapement moves, the first gear that makes the clock tick doesn’t move and we are unsure why. So I do not know if I can help. If there is a repair shop near you, you can go there
      Sorry

      Get some lubricated oil made for clocks, might need oiled. I had the same problem with one of my clocks and bought some lubricated oil off from eBay. If that doesn't work, might have to take it to a clock repair shop.

      I have the exact same clock to but I don't understand how this video it says that it's not working clearly the chimes are working perfectly fine my problem is the hour of the time is wrong it's now wrong by about eight hours I have definitely done something to it to offset it I'm afraid I'm going to have to take it to the clock shop but I'm trying to avoid that it's very frustrating to see videos of this exact same clock that I got given to for my mother it was her clock about 30 years ago which was given to her as a 10th anniversary present for my parents is marriage I love this clockI just want it to work properly but not a single video with this clock is showing me exactly how to set up the time or fix it it's very frustrating
