Ok - I feel my Disco may be introducing me into the world of old Land Rovers gently.

When I open any of the doors the clock and the radio reset themselves. Does anyone have any idea where to look, or am I in for a weekend with a multimeter!

Thanks

Steve

As the door opening is meant to ground the inner lights which are powered by perm live - i would think it is a high resistance (maybe on a door switch) which is pulling the perm live down on volts. duz it do the same if you open any other door than the drivers door?

Funnily enough - just after I made my last post I thought "Does it do it if I turn the light on" - spooky

Withh all the doors shut it does the same when I switch the light on (which incidently doesnt)

Thank you all

It was the fuse. All is very well and happy now, and the radio isn't upsetting me anymore

Your help is appreciated
