My clock still keeps time, but no motion nor music? I pushed the reset button and it lights up but nothing happens. What's up?

Here is a manual for the Seiko Melody in Motion Wall Clock, Model # QXM123BRH:

Getting Started

• Insert one "AA" size alkaline battery into the clock's battery compartment.

Volume Control

Light Sensor

• The clock is equipped with a light sensor that will automatically turn off the sound and motion sensors when the room is dark.
• To disable the light sensor, push and hold the "Light Sensor" button for approximately 5 seconds until the "OFF" indicator appears on the display.
• To enable the light sensor, push and hold the "Light Sensor" button again for approximately 5 seconds until the "ON" indicator appears on the display.

Motion Sensor

• The clock is equipped with a motion sensor that will detect movement in front of the clock and activate the sound and motion sensors.
• To disable the motion sensor, push and hold the "Motion Sensor" button for approximately 5 seconds until the "OFF" indicator appears on the display.
• To enable the motion sensor, push and hold the "Motion Sensor" button again for approximately 5 seconds until the "ON" indicator appears on the display.

Nighttime Silencer

• The clock is equipped with a nighttime silencer that will automatically turn off the sound and motion sensors during a designated period of time.

Hi,

Please double check that the device is not in an extreme-temperature environment. Flip the device on other sides and check if starts function after 10 minutes in each position. Otherwise, you might have to attempt a factory reset on your clock device.

Thank you.

I would take it to a clock repair shop.

Hi. Set the dial to reset (12 o-clock position) then push button second from right. Now set to program required and press button again. Should work now. Needs resetting every time, this is normal. Hope it works for you.

It is likely that you didn't line up the music button with the indent. I needed to push my music button out and gently align th knob with the indent so that the connection was made. Also my watch has a plastic disk that had 2 holes for little metal tabs to stick through so that the watch grounded or something. It took me 5 times of trial and error, but mine works. My watch however plays 2 tunes and is the Taz & Mrs. Taz Armitron.

There are three buttons, let's call them 1, 2, and 3, from left to right.


Clock
Time setting

A. 12 AM, PM or 24.00 h
With the clock in the time readout mode, keep
button (2) depressed for 4 seconds -12 AM, PM
or 24.00 flashing. After pushing button (1), either
a 12-hour (AM + PM) or a 24-hour setting
program can be selected. If you only want to
change the display mode, push button (3). The
clock then returns to its normal timekeeping
function.

B. Hours
Push button (2) a second time - hour display
flashes. Set hour by pushing button (1). After
pushing button (3)*, the clock returns to the time
readout mode with new hour setting.

C. Minutes
Push button (2) once more - minute display
flashes. Set minute by pushing button (1). Upon
pushing button (3)*, the clock is started -
accurate to within 1 second.

Stop watch function
The stop watch can only be set in motion if the
clock is in its normal timekeeping mode and not
during setting operations.
A. Push button (3) - 00:00 display appears;
B. Push button (1) - stop watch is on;
C. Push button (1) a second time - watch stops.
(Additional times can be added by pushing button
(1) again - stop watch keeps running. Push button
(1) once more to stop timing.)
D. Push button (2) - 00:00 display appears;
E. Push button (3) - normal timekeeping mode.

If button (3) is pushed during operation A and
B, the setting procedure must be restarted
(push button (2)).

This happened to me on Christmas Day morning & it happened once before. I finally remembered how I fixed it. Push the "Clear" button & then push the "Start" & keep it held in until you see the lock button light up (takes awhile) & then push the "Clear" button again. After I did this the "Clock" worked again - reset the clock to the correct time & push "Start" Then click on "Bake" set your temperature & push "Start". Hope this works for you. It got me out of cooking Christmas Dinner, but I fixed it today!!

take it back to the manfacture as the sensor is fualty no way for to be fixed.

I just kept plugging and unplugging the coffee pot. Eventually, the clock stopped blinking, the buttons worked, and all was well.
