Normally if the power supply was working right, a bad memory "supercap" would just cause instant loss of time and timer settings with a brief power interruption.
On that GE no doubt to me that a few caps in the power supply were failing. Used to see them all the time, plug in clock lit up, power on and it would try to do the power-on mechanism reset routine, and the power demand on the PS would cause the clock to blank out, and shut down.
