servicing the clock on a 1951

Posted by David Grubbs On 2011/5/21 22:08:39

I've pulled the instrument panel on my 51 forward to take care of some frayed wires and check the bulbs. I'd like to take the clock out so that I can oil it and clean the contacts. Does anyone know how to pull the clock out? I've taken the screws on the back loose, and removed the set screw hand in front. But I can't get the rest of the knob to come loose. Any suggestions?

Also, the turn signal indicator light on the dash isn't coming on, even though the bulb checks ok with the ampmeter. Any trouble shooting tips here?
