Q: Trip Counter, Clock & Radio Presets Are Resetting.
The last few days when I leave work for lunch, I've noticed that the trip counter, clock, radio presets and the mpg gage have all reset. It's happened 5-6 times. It has been consistently 95 outside. This does not happen overnight when the car is parked in the garage. I do notice that when the lights kick on, the dashboard dims.
My car has 19000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
