Hmm...me too. No combinations of the buttons seem to work for setting the console clock. Seems logical enough to hold the time button down while pressing the other two buttons on the right, but nothing happens (yes, I even tried pressing hard).
Anyone have the answer to that one? Could it be an alignment problem with the clock board behind the dash cover and the buttons maybe not making contact correctly?

I have an 86 F-150 with the exact same clock and buttons. You Push and Hold the Time button, then use the 2 buttons on the right to set the hours or seconds. Same method with the Date button.
Pushing harder will Not help. Push lightly and wiggle the button gently to scratch through some of the corrosion.

shop manual sets record straight on setting clock. maybe whats missing from some of the previous thread instructions is step #1: ignition switch must be in ACC or ON position in order to make adjustment
