Move the second button from the left to set, enter the time in 24 hour format via the HH and MM buttons, then move the button to start. The far left switch, on/auto.off is for the chime. Set to on for 24 hour alarms, set to auto for no chime from 11pm til 6am, set to off, to turn it off.

    I had to leave the far black left switch on or up,turn the white set /run switch to set..the far left hour is the 10 , the next hour is the 1, the next min is the 10, the far right is min 1.
    when you want to set tghe clock time .press the button and count the chirp for the time..for 10: 36 press the far left button 1 time.. do not touch the next 1 hour button..: touch the 10 min button 3 time or 3 chirps.. press the 1 min button 6 times or chirps.. then set the set switch up or run..the chime should chime every 15 min.. and the hour should chime for te hour on the hour..

      YES! Like BA said, inside the clock are switches. Turn one to OFF. Move the other to SET. Then push the H button the # of the hour it is. There are one (far left) and two digit #s (far right). I'd tried to fix this clock we bought for my mom and dad some 15 years ago.....finally the clock works again! Thanks BA!!

        JUST PRESS THE BUTTONS ON THE INSIDE OF THE CLOCK WHILE THE MAIN SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSTION. ONCE THE HOUR AND MINUTE WERE ADJUSTED, THE MAIN SWITCH WAS SET TO ON AND THE CLOCK WAS TICKING.

        THANKS.

There is a small potentiometer that the volume know is on, probably replacing the pot will fix the problem. Radio Shack has these.

mcdevito75 here, Even a so-called new battery doesn"t really mean it"s NEW!! NEW!! in other words your NEW! battery could have been laying in a store for months before you bought it. Thes ebatteries have a shelf life of a few months, about 1 year with use in a clock / watch.---- Try another battery, also the quartz mechanism could be starting to wear., also double check the battery is installed correctly.

SOURCE: Elgin Westminster Quartz Chime clock won't work

IF I GATHER CORRECTLY , YOUR CLOCK HAS TWO BATTERIES, ONE AT BASE AND ANOTHER ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT. THE ONE ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CLOCK'S FUNCTIONALITY AND I THINK THE BATTERY AT BASE IS FOR THE ROTATING BALLS ( PENDULUM ). SO OPEN UP THE BACK IF YOU HAVE NOT DONE SO, AND REPLACE THE BATTERY. CAREFULLY THOUH AS THERE RE TWO SCREWS ON TOP AND A SNAP AT CENTER BOTTOM WHICH YOU COULD EASILY BREAK IF YOU DO NOT DO IT WITH CARE. OPEN UP THE SCREWS FIRST AND GENTLY USING A SCREW DRIVER PUSH BACK ON THE SNAP HOLE TO FORCE IT UPWARDS AND INWARDS. IF NONE OF THIS MAKES SENSE THEN WE ARE LOOKING AT TWO DIFFERENT CLOCKS.

HOPE THIS HELPS.

Seiko Melodies in Motion Clock playes at all hours even when it is dark in the house. Is there a way to see if light sensor is broke?

From memory, there is a switch on the back for music all the time or not at night based on ambient light. They all have it.

How to set a classic manor quartz west minister wall clock to chime at the correct time.

Hello Fern Hicks,

Short of ORDERING IN A NEW movement I
would rather try removing the hands... and placing them where they are chime appropriate...

I'm sure there are more convoluted ways of accomplishing the same thing... but I so old & clock oriented... I only turn clocks & timers in the FORWARD direction (very OLD school).

Remove the minutes hand (from where-ever it strikes)...
Move the hour hand (only if necessary & replace the minute hand as appropriate to the movement strike.
