Hey guys, as title says, my 96 Accord ex stock radio keeps resetting. If I turn the car off any longer than a minute or two, it will ask for the code again (which I thankfully memorized) but it just becomes annoying resetting it for short trips.

I don't think it's the battery, as the car itself still starts, however it does take about 5 seconds before it starts and it does have corrosion around the terminals, so I could be wrong. I also thought it could be a blown fuse, but then I figured that couldn't be it, as the radio wouldn't power on in the first place if that was the culprit.

Any other ideas? I apologize if this topic has been covered, but I did a search and it didn't yield anything. Thanks in advance for any response/insight you may have.
