Hello, my Accutron 214 seems to require some help, and I am looking for direction.
It started loosing some time here and there and now has quit altogether. It is still humming, but the hands are stationary. Does this happen when the energy cell is near the end of its life?
Thank you in advance,
Grant

The first thing to do is try a new cell.They only last for a year or so.Get a 387S and it will fit.If you have a cell with the plastic ring on it a 394 will go into that,I think.I only use 387S.

Thank you Julian:
It has a 387S in it now, so I'll give it a try.
Thanks again,
Grant
