Clock stops when driving.
« on: September 04, 2022, 04:22:27 »
While restoring a 64 230 Sl I sent the clock to Palo Alto and had a quartz movement installed.
The clock worked perfectly for a short time; both while driving and parked.
Now it keeps perfect time only when parked, and stops working when driving.
Thank you for any thoughts,
Mike.

Dear Mike:

Check the quality of the pin connections inside the Bakelite terminal.  Often those cables are about to break.

Best regards
