clock and tripometer go to zero

my @'96 Passat 1.8 has recently had the usual maf sensor problem which are now hopefully fixed after a clean but lately when starting in the morning the clock and tripometer go to zero . any ideas .

Evidentally they are loosing power in the start position, perhaps a sign the ignition switch is starting to have problems.

Thanks Boschmann , any reccomendations ?

If the battery isn't so wak that it totally loses power when cranking then replacing the electrical part of the ignition switch is the next choice. It's somewhat complicated for a do-it-yourself job.
