Possible Causes

Loose neutral connection, Power surges or brownouts, Failing internal clock circuit on control board, Shared circuit with heavy loads

Safety first: Turn off power before tightening electrical connections.

Check house power: Ensure the range is on a dedicated circuit and not sharing with large appliances that may cause voltage dips.
Inspect terminal block: Tighten all screws at the terminal block and check the power cord for damage.
Surge protection: Consider installing a whole-house surge protector or using a surge-protected circuit for the range.
Replace control: If power is stable but the clock still resets, replace the electronic oven control board.
