    So, my clock on my '74 Challenger doesn't work.      :'(       Any common causes?    Any suggestions on what I should look at first (to eliminate other options)? 

    Thanks

    Original clock movements are notorious for being fickle. They didn't work very long when new. You can have them rebuilt and serviced or updated to quartz. I can help with both options if you are interested.

    generally caused by low battery , the voltage drops to the point were the clock stays in 1 position & burns the contact , you can upgrade to  modern electronic guts
