I had a similar issue on my A4000 - it turned out the date it was defaulting to was when I had first installed the system. It was probably stored somewhere and it kept using it as a starting point. The issue went away after I finally had the time to fix the RTC circuit
I'm not sure if the A3000 is any different than an A4000 in that regard, though.
I remember using Scout to check if the RTC was properly working and it would accurately report it as non-working until I fixed it completely. Not sure if it would work in the same way on an A3000 but that's worth a shot, I guess.
