The yellow wire needs to be connected to the battery for constant power.

How are you turning it off? Power button on head unit or toggle switch on dash?

Ok I'll have to look for yellow wire , I turn it off on head unit or transom remote . Seems like if I tune it off for hour or 2 then back on it remembers but any time longer it doesn't .

That shouldn't wipe the memory out. Maybe an internal head unit issue/watch battery?

I load tested the battery this spring , and it was 92%.... I thought it was weird . I don't have a battery disconnect yet either
