Random power down

So got a bit of a strange one.

Car starts drives and behaves great (yes, I know, that’s strange in itself) however, randomly, after I’ve parked up and left the car, I’ll come back to find the trip computer has reset, trip 0, ave speed 0 etc, on a rare occasion, the radio has also lost the station the clock has reset to 00:00 and the epb states that it’s not engaged.
Key in, and starts no problem. Doesn’t happen every time, probably twice a week or so.

Suspecting the main earth corroded but if it’s a bad wire somewhere wouldn’t it be more likely to happen during driving with the vibration etc? It only happens when it’s parked up and locked.

Any thoughts?

The alternator could keep things going when engine running

So check battery connectors and earth to inner wing
