Hello and welcome. Usually things like this are from pushing the button
too deep and getting the button slightly off-center. Then it can't pop
back out and acts like it is still being pushed. Take a toothpick or
similar and GENTLY work the button until it is centered again and pops
out. This comes up here on the list often enough that you shouldn't feel
bad about doing it.

The problem was likely not from the wiring, but from when I tried to re-set it. (I am a walking accident. Did I mention that part?) I can only guess I pressed in the inner buttons too hard. Now the hour  does not change and the minutes just count like seconds to 59 and start again.
