Year of car will be a big help
When you say clock, you mean the centre display?
Is it the hazard switch with the lock button?
Checked fuses? Changed stereo or messed behind dash recently?

Your just p**sing in to the wind until you tell us what year of 206 you have.
there's 2 totally different electrical systems used on the 206 & the fuse boxes including fuse numbers are totaly different as well.

Use this to find your fuses and check with a multimeter. Not just by eye as sometimes they appear to be fine but are not.
Sound more like a fuse than anything else. Especially as you have been fiddling.

If you remove the fuse then set the multimeter to read continuity and put it across the prongs on the fuse it will beep or not. No beep means blown fuse. Double check it beeps first by touching both probes together. Failing that just replace the fuse anyway. Would imagine it will either be fuse F8 or F18. looking at the guide.
Sometimes if you look at a fuse from the back you can see that the metal strip in the middle has broken. If its a clear one you should be able to see from thd side. .

Save yourself unnecessary expense and ring an auto electrician to sort it.
I can see a dead 206 coming to the forum very soon.
