1. leave it in strong light for 24 hours to initially charge the capacitor 2. make sure your minute hands not touching the glass or bent 3. old stock movement (doubtful from cousins) with a life extinct capacitor 4. Faulty movement

And for anyone..... STOP posting before & after shots.... Post AFTER & before shots. the picture you see first is the before shot, it doesn't show how good your repairs are, it just shows a worn out shoe. I always post the other way around.

I remember the first day this happened to me being confused. id had a good day, cashed up and there was nothing in the till. I remember thinking it couldn’t be real. I’ve not taken a cheque in years.
