What can cause the clock and radio to keep resetting? Whenever i turn the car off everything resets to 1:00 and all the radion settings are gone.

you need to hook up a constant power source to it. Do you have an aftermarket radio?

Check the fuses in the car and under the hood?

i had the same problem. i ran a constant power source to the interior light fuse. the clock still always reset itself until i put my engine swap in,

There's a 7.5 Amp fuse in the fusebox under the hood (next to the battery) that supplies +12 Volts constant power to the clock and to the stereo wiring harness. This is the culprit. I just had this problem and only after looking at the full wiring diagram for the car did I figure this out.
