My clock and trip meter in my 2006 jetta resets every time I turn the car on. How do I fix it?

Clearly those are the symptoms of a loss of electrical power. Simple
things to check: the battery cables are tightly connected to the
battery, and if your battery has removable caps, check the battery fluid
levels. If low, fill to the proper level with distilled water. Your
battery may not be fully charged. If a shop that does free
battery/alternator testing is conveniently available to you (e.g. Penske
auto center at a Kmart), it might be worth having them check the
condition of the battery.
From what I have read on various VW forums do a search of "relay 109". That
relay can be blamed for a multitude of symptoms. But since you got the
car started, I'm not sure I would put it as the number one suspect.

Check your fuses. Electronic devices with memory require some power to allow them to hold the memory. The power needs to be there even when the car is turned off otherwise you will experience exactly what's happening to you.

Which fuse would it be, the owners manual is no help at all.
Checked all fuses both 19 and 8 and they are all operational, the clock and trip meter still reset. Also headlight and key in ignition warning tone do not work. Leave the headlights on no ding.
The engine is a 2.5L
