W115 Clock Repair
Does anyone know where I can send my VDO quartz clock for my 1976 240D out to be repaired?
Thanks |

There is a place in the LA area known as Hollywood Speedometer repair that has been in business for years and years. They have a good reputation.
You can also look in any copy of Hemmings Motor News under the 'services' listings and find clock repair and replace shops. |

Or if you can access the capacitor or capacitors yourself. Change them.

I can't see of a way to open the clock to replace the capacitors. I have not found any information on line how to open the clock. |

I repaired the mechanical clock on my 72 107. But it is hard to calibrate so it keeps proper time. I would prefer a quartz replacement, but then who needs a clock on a 107

I know the w115 in the early years had the electro-mechanical clock which requires the capacitor addition. I believe the later years had the quartz version.
I tried to fix this myself and it worked for a few months, but has stopped again. I will probably try again, and if I fail, I will definitely be contacting Jeffrey above. Thanks for the referral.
