Default Climate control keeps losing its memory!

Every day or two my Climate Control loses its memory and resets back to 73 degrees. Why is it doing that, and what can I do to fix it? It'd driving me

Default climate control guess

could you possibly be using a different fob when you notice a change? i think the climate settings are part of the driver 1, 2, or 3 memory setting like the seat/strg wheel position, radio channels etc. i am having a similar problem with mine in that the climate control comes on as auto and there is a way to set it in memory. i am still working on how to change the memory climate control setting. i saw it in the manual and i am trying to find out where it was! anyway, just an educated guess for what it is worth!

The irony of that is my fob hasn't worked for almost a year now. My seat memory etc all stay the same when the climate control resets to auto. Thanks for the tip, though.

Sounds like low voltage to me. How old is your battery?

I would have It looked at, If you have to replace the head unit you can buy them cheaper at Ecklers, Mid America or my favorite ~ (Corvette Central)
Best of luck, I hope It works out.

Best prices for new GM factory items are from either one of our two dealer forum vendors. Fred Beans or Fichtner Chev.

I don't think its the battery. It resets itself while the motor is running. Also, I fixed my head unit last summer so I'm pretty confident that isn't the problem. I will most likely bring it in to the dealer to take a look at.
Thanks for all the feedback.
