Hi,
I have just installed a Whalfedale WCD 712 and set the clock and radio
stations but it cant seem to remember what I just input, i.e. when I turn
the engine off and on again the clock goes back to 12:00 and the preset
radio stations are lost. Anyone have this cd player and know what I might
be
doing wrong?
Cheers,
Tim

you've not got the power wires the correct way round,

the permanant live is connected to the accessory live position on the
stereo, and vise versa, so when the ignition goes off, all power is removed
from the stereo, and it looses power to keep the memories and clock etc.

the handbook should have told you about different cars having the permanent
and ignition switched power wires in differnet positions on the iso
connectors.. VW do this mainly, but as VW controll so many cars nowadays,
skoda, seat, audi and so on will be the same,
