I have a kenwood stereo for 2000 saab 9-5. the tuner works but whenever i change it to cd you can no longer hear any music. it must be the wiring but i dont know which color wire is connected for the cd player.

This often doesn't work because the radio is monitored by the Body Control Module on the 5 volt computer network.

The stereo have four small holes. Use small, long screwdrivers and shove them in pretty hard, and then try to pull the stereo straight out.
You cannot replace your stereo with another saab original stereo without "paring" these two first. Otherwise it wont work. Buying another universal stereo will work (Kenwood, etc)

Hi If anything the stereo was probably designed and tested using a certain version of the Iphones software, now that version 4 has been released the way the IPhone communicates may have changed.

As a result the stereo is no longer able to talk to the phone and vice versa. your probably best off contacting Kenwood direct to see if they are aware of this problem and if there is anything that can be done about it.

Check your fuses first then check for loose wires. Good luck

you have to activ ate the aux port form the menu, on standby hold the menu button and then use the control knob on the right to change the aux to on1

I burn CD's on my laptop connected to a HM-33 through the earphone out plug. You have to change the computer's system input sound preference from "system" to "Audio in". Stereo sound quality is excellent.

I fixed the sound problem with tech support from Kenwood. I had the blue wire from the Kenwood which is the antennae turn on wired to the amp turn on for the vehicle (2001 Blazer with Bose factory stereo). This is how I was told to wire it from the installation tech where I purchased the wiring harness. The tuning played fine because the Bose amp turned on when I played the tuner but when I played the cd or aux the amp turned off, thus no sound. The kenwood tech toldd me to wire the blue/white wire to the amp turn on for the vehicle so the amp would be on when ever power to the Kenwood was on. I rewired this way and everything works great now.

The amp's remote turn-on wire is probably connected to the blue wire coming from the back of the stereo - this is intended for a power antenna, which is why it only works when listening to the radio. Disconnect it from the blue wire and connect it to the blue/white wire coming from the back of the receiver and you should be good to go.

Assuming that the four speakers are connected to the amplifier, then the amp is the most likely problem component. Does the amplifier show a power light when the system is turned on? Note that there is probably another fuse in the amplifier power wire, near the battery.
