It is maddening when instruments on the dashboard don't work and had exactly your experience with the clock in my '72 S2 Coupe. I sent mine off to JDO Instruments. They are in Keighley, West Yorkshire. They replaced the old movement with a Quartz one and I have had no problems with it since. All guaranteed of course and no VAT. The only visual difference is that the new movement does not have a second hand. I hope this helps. Kind regards, Al.

https://speedycables.com/ came back good as new, well 40 odd years old, but it’s been fine since. Stephen Title: Re: Fulvia Clock not working Post by: Thalia72 on 18 June, 2021, 04:16:03 PM Excellent! That's worth knowing for the next project.
