How do I get my grandfather clock to drop left and right weights?
Suddenly my left and right weights in my grandfather clock have stopped dropping. The middle drops just fine. I read an article about something may be wrong with the chime and to open a side panel? Where is this located and what would I need to do?
I just had the same thing happen to my ridgeway gfather clock. the manual said it was sent on the silencer mode. there's a lever on the right side of the clock on mine and it just needed to be switched to the opposite position. it immediately started chiming. I read that the outside weights control the chimes. I hope this works for you because I was seriously worried when the weights weren't dropping on my clock but now they are working.
