Default What would make the clock reset in my car every time I shut it off?

I have Accord 1994 has OEM Honda 6 CD Changer which was not working
So that I bought new Sony Xplod CDX-565MXRF 10 CD changer
Anyways I installed it and it is working fine
But the problem is every time I shut off my car the time reset and radio reset all saved channels and ask for code
I’m worried about the way I connected the power wires, I connect them to the fuse box below the dashboard

check the memory(yellow) wire to see if it has voltage. The memory wire has constant power to your cd player even while the car is off to save radio channel, time, settings...etc.

You have a blown "back-up power" fuse, your OEM radio has two fuses, radio acc. fuse, [switched power] and a constant power fuse for memory, the constant power fuse is normally found in the engine bay fuse box, marked as "back up" and is almost always a 7.5A in Honda/Acuras. 94
