So, your cars clock loses time between driving? How about the trip meter? The car starts up fine?

If it started with the cold it could be a bad connection somewhere thats losing connection when cold. Is there any difference once the cars warmed up?

[jippo83]

Yea she starts first time every time Jay butas of today there's no power going to ether clock or the radio I'm confused

[JayJay]

Hm, you sure the fuse is ok and is contacting properly? If it is, it must be bad wiring somewhere

[jippo83]

I'll go thru them all again but I'm shore there ok . Not wanting to sound thick but what dose contracting mean and how do I check if it is or not thanks for ur help

just make sure it's pushed in all the way

also remove them and check for oxidisation (white blobs) on the fuse contacts.
