Re: [MBZ] W115 Clock Repair
Leave the bezel alone. Unless it is the steel body back there should be two screws that allow the back to be slipped off. Even the steel back has a way inside. Bring it over to my hut and we can figure out how to fix it. I have done a few clocks on my dining table. Or tell me where to go and I will help you.

As I have asked before, FIRST you need to tell us, definitively, whether your clock is mechanical or electronic. * They look the same from the face, except one says Quartz on it * They're VERY different inside * How you open them depends VASTLY on which one it is. The quartz one needs the face un-swaged. That's great fun, especially since you have to be careful so that you can put it back and have it still look good. I have fixed them before, it takes me a couple of hours. The mechanical one is easy, the back cover is held on with three nuts, one of them hidden behind a tamper-proof cap. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Someone have Jim Mahaffey's e-mail address? He's the MB clock guru. He's on faculty at Georgia Tech, I believe.

[MBZ] W115 Clock Repair
All, I'm still trying to figure out how to repair the clock in the 74 240D. The case is a very solid one piece enclosed stamping and the bezel is swaged on. Any suggestions on how to get at the innards without resorting to the Dremel cutting wheel? Anyone have a working clock to spare?
