I parked it in the garage Friday afternoon and everything was working fine. This morning, I open the door, and no interior lights come on. Whoops! I must have left my door ajar all weekend. No problem, I'll just push start it (manual transmission). As soon as the car gets rolling, the interior light comes on (I had my door open), the radio comes to life, and I start the car with the ignition switch. The radio did 'forget' the time and the preset stations. Everything was fine on the drive into work, but what happened? I obviously completely lost power, because the radio lost its memory. What happened and what fixed it?? Thanks for any info, Jim Brohard
