Fuses, plus wiggle connector on back of dash. I hated mine, always having to reset after battery disconnected. Shoved a rev counter in there and fitted a digital clock. I think theres been a few threads (possibly on the Samba) that cover clock faults and how to fix.

The power feed to the clock (red cable) also connects to the plug for the radio did you reconnect it?
