Cuckoo keeps cuckooing at 12/parts of a cuckoo movement. Inked20220816 190225

In this video I explain what you can do if your cuckoo clock cuckoos extra on the 11 or 12 o'clock position and why it is doing it.

Thanks Mark! This worked like a charm for my heirloom cuckoo clock.. With you and Mike's videos, I've restored 3 clocks now so I'd say the addiction is in full swing!! Thanks again!

You sound like you have been bit hard by the antique/clock bug. Yes cuckoo clocks are very addicting. I have several that I can be trying to fix but I am always looking at others and I dont have any more room in my house to hang them. Congrats on fixing your clocks. Thanks for watching.

Great video! I actually have one acting up right now and will try this.

Good luck! Let me know if you need more help.

The only thing you didn't mention was not all cuckoo clocks have that Spring wire.

[@munnerlyn3]

You are right. I didnt mention in this video but I think that I mentioned it in the other video. But thanks for keeping me on my toes.

Hi, I have a question for you that I hope you can/help me with. My clock does the opposite, it only cuckoo once on the hour. I watched what it is doing, the rack falls all the way down. However if I move the minute hand slowly by hand it does work, but that's the only time it will work. I hope that my explanation makes sense to you. Thank you for any assistance advice and help with this.

I have another video explain why your clock would only cuckoo once on the hour and possibly not cuckoo on the half hour. Sounds like the lift lock lever which is the lever that comes off the center wheel with minute arbor to lift the rack stop lever needs adjusting. Look for the folder problems with cuckooing and then in that folder look for the video entitled cuckoo doesnt play on the half hour. I hope this helps. If you need more help then let me know. You can reach me faster by sending me a message on FB. My profile picture is me hugging a fake bear.
