In Reply to: OBC Reset Itself posted by Greg on October 15, 2000 at 19:53:33:


Took the car out for it's first long drive from Charlotte to Virginia on I77.

On the way back I took the Blue Ridge Parkway to HWY 16 and that to Charlotte.

Anyway, almost home when the Valantine 1 sounded an alert (there was a parked HP behind me) and next thing I notice, the date and time on the car is gone.

All OBC settable values were reset. This includes Timers, Distance to Dest, Time of Arrival. Consum1 and 2. Stopwatch.

Odo and trip odo were not affected. And, the GPS destination was not affected. It still knew where I wanted to go.

GPS defaulted back to factory (I think) settings for scale too.

Any ideas?
