Your owners manual says to press and hold the button until the display flashes.
Then use the seek buttons to change the digit.
If you have the navigation system there are different instruction in the manual supplement.

That is too funny! I found the F150 clock is the easiest to set out of any Ford I have ever owned. Push clock button and enter numbers!

Just make sure you put it in park before trying to revise the time. I tried while driving. Didn't work until I put the truck in park.

Thank you, that worked!

When I first set the clock it was the easiest clock I had ever set but for some reason it didn't work as the manual said this last time. The numbers did not flash when I held the clock button, they disapeared and you couldn't use the station up/down buttons. Figured it was something else simple.

I had the engine running, pushed the clock button and then let go of it. Then, I pressed 610 using the preset station selection buttons, and there it was 6:10! Thank you!

Okay figured it out!!!!
1st Turn key to on position.
2nd select AM/FM. ⬅️ This the only thing that different from other attempts I was always on aux. Select am/fm and set your clocks
3rd Press & hold clock button and like magic Set Time appears use the 1 though 0 numbers and set time.
