The LCD should not be connected to the chip drivers to keep time. Maybe
you have an intermittent power to the clock, either from the hot (red),
or ground wire (black), or both. The green wire is hot in accy or run,
the remaining wire (color not shown) is hot with light sw in park or
head. This is per the 89 405 Peug elec manual.

Hope this helps.
