Hi Wildman, Ive just been going through installing a clock myself in my FB and it does not tick but this is because of burnt coil. You might check this as well on yours if it isn't working. Its easy to get the housing off. I am going to attach a photo of my fuse plate and the connections I have. Gray is the illumination wire and orange is power. Ground goes to dash above. Good luck.

the clock has been restored and checked bye the restorer so i know the clock is not bad the bulb socket has the extra wire sodered to the side so is that wire hot or is it a ground and is it for the light for the clock thanks wildman.....

most sockets if you look inside of them have one or two contacts in the bottom. these are the hot connection. the outside of the socket is the ground, so i would think that a wire connected to the outside of the socket would be ground also.

it would seem like the heater would ground throught the pigtail on the socket. does the fuse blow if you put the socket in without the bulb?
