I understand how to set my date and time using a long press on the left side knob on the cluster board. Something happened, I over pressed the year, and it ran in more than 2018 that we are in.

How do I return it to 2018?

Thanks in anticipation of your kind response.

There has to be a back button next to the up right side of the cluster board? Can you take a picture and show me?

Cheers, Ken

No problem. lets try disconnecting the battery for five minutes and then reconnect it, this should clear the date and time so you can reset it.
