    Pretty sure it was working last year when I drove it to Eugowra..... try pulling the knob out a little and letting it snap back to get the mechanism going... if the battery has been disconnected the clocks need a jump start.

    Instrument services should be able to repair them if they are able to obtain parts

    I did that years ago, pulled out non working clock & replaced it with a Smiths brand clock. looked like shit in G.T.S. dash compared to original one. Spend the money & get it fixed is my advice. If its buggered get onto Oz, im sure he'd have some for sale. If you cant find one, im pretty sure I could organise one around the place, is it white or yellow needle?

    cheers

    Each state usually has a good instrument repairer. in Victoria Howard instruments in Heidelberg, but they take time and not always lower cost. others may have their preference and could advise who to use.

    I must be one of the lucky ones my original clock in the HZ Sandman Ute works and keeps perfect time............but boy is it loud, it has a sort of Hum that you can't miss.

    Nothing like the hum of a GTS clock to sleep to! I love it.
