I recently purchased a 1998 corsa B which the previous owner had changed the standard vauxhall radio and put in a kenwood CD player. the CD player works fine but when they replaced the radio they cut the wires to the digital clock on the dashboard which displays the time. i have managed to reconnect the live wire (red wire) and the blue wire to the earth so that the clock does power up but every time i switch off the ignition the clock resets itself there are two other solid colour cables one is (black) and the other is (brown)

sound like the permanent live has been cut.check the wires with a meter to see which is live.

i have managed to sort the problem i had the permanent live connection the red wire connected to an ignition live and not a permanent connection so the clock powered down completly each time i turned off. i only needed to connect the two wires (red and blue) and the unit works fine.
