The clock won't keep time. The rest of the the console data seems ok, but I am worried that this is the beginning of a cascade of more errors on the console. Anyone have this problem or hear of a solution?

Mine has drifted about 10 minutes over the last year. I just reset it.

Which bike, model and year?
My SR/F oddly has the wrong time on it, but only occasionally.
Others have reported this as well.
Later, the time will be accurate.

My SR/F is one hour off about half the time when I power it up, but it's always on the right minute! My DSR used to drift fairly quickly, I'd reset it about once a month.

I guess the SR/F displays the time according to the Cellular network, so that why it could be a full hour off but still accurate to the minute. Do you live nearby a time change zone ?
My SR/F has been accurate always (but i don't live nearby a time change zone / Europe, netherlands)

3 hours ago i was driving the SR/F and the time was wrong yes, around 30 minutes earlier...
Came back to normal after... sometime it's an hour difference... Just need to have a real watch ^^

Nope, it's all EST/EDT for miles around!

From other posts, I guess you have a 2014S.
The dash has its own battery and clock that is likely to be at fault, given its age, and can be replaced or you can replace the dash entirely if it’s aging in other ways.
But it’s worth checking the bike logs in case the MBB is having issues.

Thanks, yes, it is the clock battery. Anyone have a link to specific instructions on how to replace it?

The clock on my 2018 S drifts so much that I rarely look at it. I use the "time" display on the app instead.

The clock on my 2018 S is quite accurate. I think it gains about a minute every couple of months. :)

2014S
It's a lithium CR2032 cell inside the enclosure:

Taking it apart is not difficult, neither is replacing the cell. But the enclosure needs to resist moisture ingress around the seal, so plan on cleaning that rubber gasket and maybe apply some electrical insulating grease or similar all the way around the edge.
FWIW, Zero recommends replacing the entire cluster when the battery dies because of the moisture issue, but your bike is out of warranty so I figure you're better off trying to fix it first.
