Clock Resets At Random

[Hadyourphil]

Recently, my 2001 RX300's clock has been resetting itself as if its power has been removed. No other stored items are affected (radio button settings, etc), just the clock. Any ideas??

A couple of years ago my RX300 clock would reset itself each night for about a week just before the car battery failed and needed to be replaced. I would guess that the voltage was dropping below some set threshold during the night and the clock was reset. New battery and all was fine with the clock. Hope this helps.

Yep, time for a new battery, go to costco and get one cheap.
