Radios lose their presets when there is a loss of power.

 

it is possible that the radio memory is shut off when the car is turned off, so the presets are not retained.

The radio could also be bad.

This the OEM Toyota headunit or an aftermarket unit? Are you sure the presets are being saved correctly, in the correct preset area, i.e. FM1 or FM2, etc.? Any aftermarket components added to the audio system (amps, speakers, ipod adapter, etc.)? How does the headunit work otherwise (controls, quality, does it do anything out of the ordinary - aside from the presets)?

The radio in my 98 did the same thing, only when the temperature was below freezing.

Wait for Spring and the fault will go away... default_cool
