i meant to say memory soz

[skeggy_engineer]

sounds like youve put ya battery in the wrong way round bud

[skeggy_engineer]

When its saying memory cleared are you switching the machine straight back off again? if you ae you need to wait until the message has cleared before it will work

hi i have double cheaked and the battery is in the right way for sure. i have left the alarm to go off which it does for about 20 seconds then clears and plays ok but when i turn it off,leave it then turn it back on the alarm sounds again?? i never had the alarm prob untill i changed the battery? and it still forgets credits
any ideas folks

Have you checked to make sure its the same voltage as there are a few different types of machine batterys? If this is correct, make sure the solder points havent crossed over and is shorting as this would cause it to clear the ram everytime its switched off. And finally if that is all ok then you have purchased a faulty battery by the sounds of it then is probably flat and isnt holding its charge. Try resoldering the battery off and back on again
