Ok I posted the question how to fix my clock, well, my biggest delima was getting the plastic cover off without breaking it, what appears to be holding it back from easily coming off is the, male power prong, it is sorta sealed around the plastic, like fused or something. I cut around it just enough to break it free with a razor knife and wham I carefully remove the case. Then im doing my inspection of the fusing wire etc, or actually just trying to find one!! Any start to tinker w/ the clocks counter balance weight, the one that electrically gets zapped back to start the count over again, TICK! TOCK ! TICK ! TOCK !, how can this be, there is no power???? Stupid me thought it would keep running, so I left it sit alone a min. to come back to it dead. Long story short, I lubed everything up with Tri Flow super lube w/ teflon, put it back in the car just sorta hangin there, NOTHING!! So i fool with fuses etc, the usual, still nothing,, wiring, still nothing, then the brackets that hold the clock in place, well i push the clock alittle further in its whole, and I start hearing this thing!!! I just went back out there and its still running!!!! Germans make awesome machinery, clocks dated 9/62 !!
