Which numbers don't move, I can't make it out from your description.

You have the odometer that records your total mileage and your tripometer which you can reset by turning a wheel on the side of the clocks.

Both of these are driven by a series of tiny gears.

If somethings not turning properly there are a couple of common reasons.

Broken / worn out clock,
clock mileage been tampered with

You can get the clock apart to have a look at it, see if you can fix it but often there cheaper to replace

It's driven by a series of plastic gears, your only option is to take the clock apart and have a look and see why it isn't working, you might have some dirt trapping the gears.
