Charlie:

I did look at the wiring diagram, and there was not a wire simply labeled 'memory.' Also, I was very careful when I made the connections -- Dave (the shop owner) told me which wires out of the radio needed to be spliced to which of the existing wires; he double-checked everything before Vu slid the radio into place.

Since each and every new wire was spliced to an existing wire, either one connection failed (possibly when Vu was trying to get the radio locked into place -- there was a lot of resistance), or two wires are crossed. I doubt it's the latter, as everything else seems to function perfectly.

The easiest thing for me to do is to pull the radio and check all of the connections. The only problem is that I don't know how to pull the radio! (without causing damage, that is) But it is also possible that Vu added/ moved some of the wiring in the boot -- but I can't ask him because he is out of town. That's why I was wondering if any of the people who helped out may have seen what went on in the boot.

If anyone out there can help me pull the radio and check the connections this weekend, I would welcome your assistance.
