2012 Accord Sedan 5 speed manual, 2.4 L

Clock/Radio reset needed, but never changed or diconnected the battery. Only things done recently have been:

Chasing a driver's side courtesy light that is getting low voltage (passenger side fine).

Did do standard battery and alternator check with multimeter. Battery a tad low at 12.4 v off, but 14v running.

Checked power at courtesy light socket (low, 1.4v) - something wrong there.

Drivers door panel off and disconnected a few times for the courteay light tests and install of new interior and exterior trim moldings.

Door locks and windows work without issue.

Never failed to start and no elextrical components having issue (except that courtesy light).

Battery never drained or really got low - starts right up.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

 

The loss of settings is either a software issue or a very intermittent loss of power or ground to the radio that isn't from a bad battery. It is possible the ground wire on the courtesy door light on your other thread leads you to an area that has some other corrosion/connector issue that could be tied to the radio and clock. I wouldn't dig much into it unless this becomes more frequent.
