Clocks and Your Car Battery
It’s frustrating when your car changes time and slows down on you. But many drivers overlook a key cause—your car battery is low. That’s because your battery ceases supplying power to the system when it dies. Because of the temporary radio freeze that results from this, your clock can show the incorrect time. So if your clock keeps resetting or showing the wrong time, check your battery.
