I have a mantel clock whose movement was made by the Cuckoo Clock Mfg. Co. circa 1960. The clock was made to chime the hour and to chime (same rods) once on the half hour. In the process of spot cleaning and oiling the clock, the clock no longer chimes on the half hour. When the minute hand reaches the half hour, you can see the movement begin to run the chime, but the movement stops before chiming.
I am hoping that you oiled it also? One trick I have found is to gently lift the hammers and release, sometimes the hammers will release and strike the chimes/gong. Do this 4-5 times and hopefully it will get it chiming for you again.
