I have a seth tomas grandfather clock,all the chimes are correct accept @ 6am orpm itonly chimes 5 times instead of 6.5 is ok & 7 is okits just 6 that is wrong

SOURCE: Chime strike on middle of 1&2, 4&5, 7&8 and 10&11 instead of 3,6,9 and 12.

We understand your question:

The hand has a center bushing with the square hole in it.Remove the hand and use a pair of pliers on the bushing in the minute hand then re-clock or rotate the bushing back on the quarter hour then replaced it back on the clock.

Hope this tip provides some workable ideas for this repair.

Take the batteries out from the base, where the chime mechanism is. Wait till it gets close (20 seconds till) to a specific hour time, like 8:00 or 9:00, replace the batteries for the chime mechanism. And then count the chimes at the hour. If they are correct, you are set. If they are incorrect, turn the time back 15 minutes before the hour and bring it right back and monitor the chimes again. Hopefully this should fix it. Please post the results.
