The memory retention things that plug into the cigarette lighter won't work on our cars, the ignition has to be on in order for that outlet to be active, in fact, 95% of Honda, Toyota & Nissan's are like this. External power applied to the OBDII port will allow the ECM to retain all settings. I did this when I swapped the battery in my 2012 and didn't lose anything.
