Dakota Digital Dash Problem

We just installed a Dakota Digital dash in a 71 Blazer.
After shutting off the car the dash looses all of it's programming.
Has anyone had this problem?
Any clue as to the problem?
It says not to hook it up to a constant 12v source.
Is there a battery back-up in the module?

Thanks.

Re: Dakota Digital Dash Problem

Ya might want to post this in the main 67-72 section as there are probably more guys with pickups that may have the dakota dashes.
