I have a simple battery operated wall clock that has recently started to either completely stop or slows down. I replaced the batteries and it continues to do the same thing, BUT when I put the clock in a different room, it works fine. So I put a different clock in the same place as the original clock and the same thing happens to that one too. I live in apartment and the "problem" wall divides another apartment. Is it possible that they have something along that wall that is interfering with my clocks?

When you removed the battery, were the terminals corroded? If so, clean the terminals on the clock to remove any corrosion.

When you removed the battery , was it difficult to remove? Sometimes during removal of the battery the wires that connect to the termimals will break or come free. If you can see the wires that are supposed to connect to the terminals, make sure they are making good contact and that they too are not corroded.

Good Luck.

We had the same problem with our wall clock, but it was due to corrosion from a dead battery. The battery acid leaked inside and disrupted the connection between the metal contacting the batteries and the circuit (the one with the copper coil). We took everything out cleaned the contact points with acetone (nail polish remover). After that we had to bend the contact heads up just a little bit so they would contact the circuit again (I guess we bent them down a little when we were cleaning it). It worked just fine after that. I know it sounds intimidating to take apart a clock and put it back together but you're going to throw it out anyway. Just give it a try. It was kinda fun. Think of it as a puzzle. If you can't fix it, I imagine you can get a new motor at any hobby store or Michaels.

SOURCE: Radio controlled clock won't set

it sounds like its working but its setting daylight savings time mine has an option to turnoff .that's makes scents if it always 1 hour off exactly.

SOURCE: My Barolo atomic wall clock (with hands) stopped

Try to move the clock to a different place. Atomic clocks work by receiving a radio signal. If it has no reception, it may do that. However, I would suspect that no reception would lead to it not setting at all(at least based on the ones I've seen) and it may be something wrong with it (i.e. having difficulty detecting where it's hands are) Good luck.
