    Default Radio Clock


    The radio has a clock that stays on when it is turned off. Any chance that this will drain the cranking battery that it is hooked to in a short amount of time?

    I seriously doubt it but typically there's a particular wire dedicated to feeding juice when the ignition is off so if you're worried about it you could locate the wire and disconnect it.

    I thought about doing that if I had to.

    That clock draws milliamps. It would take a very long time to run your battery down.
