To keep the memory, it probably uses a small battery, a "memory backup" capacitor (like 1 F, 5 V), or maybe an output on the power supply that isn't switched off along with everything else. Open it up and take a look - the battery or memory cap should be fairly obvious; the power supply might require a little poking around.

Also, did it previously remember its settings for a longer period of time? Some devices only have enough "backup" to ride through short power failures, not several days.

Matt, 10 yrs ago it used to remember the settings, 3 yrs ago when I replaced the skinny dial lamps with white LED's I had the cover off and could find no battery or memory cap. I suppose it could be flash memory though I think it predates that. Thanks for the link. Dick
