Question
We have a wall clock that won't chime on the hour or half hour. It chimes at 20 past and 10 of. How do we fix the problem? Thanks for the help.
It depends on what kind of clock it is. Sometimes there is an adjustable bushing in the minute hand. The adjustment is made by removing the minute hand, grabbing the bushing and turning it in the desired direction.
If this does not help you, please let me know what kind of clock movement you have.
