Linden Chime wall clock chimes incorrectly.?

I have a quartz movement wall clock that my mother has owned forever. The face has arabic numerals & The only words are "Linden" above the center, and "Chime" below it. It looks similar to a Howard Miller Elliott wall clock. The clock works & will chime, but it's supposed to chime once on the half hour - instead, it chimes for the hour. For instance - it will chime 7 times at 7:30, 8 times at 8:30, etc. rather than the one time it is supposed to. It's already ben to a jeweler, and he was incapable of fixing it. Is there an easy way to fix this? Failing that, how do I tell who made the movement & where I can get a new one?


Check the hands on the face. Normally they are just a friction fit. Remove the hands and put them back on for the correct hour when the clock chimes on the hour. This should fix the problem.

Normally, when setting a clock like this, never moves the hands backward. Advance the clock and let the chimes complete their sequence at each point where they chime before advancing the time again. To set the clock back when daylight time ends, just stop it for the hour instead of trying to advance the time 11 hours.

ADDED:

The site below has quartz chime movements but it says they give the full westminster chime on at all quarter hours. It also give the hourly chime on the hour. Check it out and see if it's a help.
