Clock Motor for Heath SB-630

[Goss, Ed]

Best thing to do is go on Ebay and search for "Tymeter."  You can find the old Tymeter clocks in the brown plastic cases for as low as $10, although they sometimes go for $25 or so.  This will get you a motor, as well as whatever other spare clock parts you might need (Tymeter clock and SB-630 clocks are essentially the same).

Hi Steve,
They are no longer made and chances are you won't find one.  In 
restoring my SB-630, had the same problem so found a similar motor with 
a good winding but different gear train. An appliance parts store with 
lots of junk is a good place to start. Drilled out the spot welds and 
took the motor apart.  Put the new windings in the old motor.  Drilled 
and tapped using 4-40 hardware to put it back together.  Also had to 
make some new bushings using brass rod.  A little epoxy was used to seal 
the gear case.  Works fine.  Even considered a replacement LED clock but 
wanted to keep it original.  Luck and 73.
