Q: How do I reset my security code?

A: If you do not know the security code for your unit, you will need to take the unit to a Kenwood authorized service center to have it decoded. The code feature can only be activated when the code has been entered twice, so it isn't accidentally activated. The service center will often require you to provide a proof of purchase as this feature is designed for theft prevention and the proof of purchase will ensure you are the rightful owner of the product.

My Kenwood DNX5120 WHENT into protect mode

If your headunit is in protect mode, the most likely cause would be the speaker wires are shorting somewhere. The most likely place would be the connections behind the stereo with an inferior installation. The next most likely place would be at the speaker connections, especially if the speakers were recently replaced.

I have a ford festiva it has a kenwood KDC-MP4036U i bought it and the battery died the stereo is asking for code how do i bypass

You can enter a 4-digit security code as an option after purchase of the unit. If you do so, make sure it is noted down somewhere. If you did select a code (or the previous owner has done so) this must be used when the unit is removed from the vehicle, or the constant power source is disconnected from the unit. When constant power is restored to the unit, the security code must be entered before the unit becomes operational. If the code is lost or forgotten I am afraid the unit has to be re-coded by a Kenwood dealer.
Hope this helps, Good luck with it.

How to reset the code to a kenwood dnx5120

i'm not sure if this will reset it, but in the front of your navi system there is a tiny hole (below the volume control knob). It'd probably be best to use the end of a paper clip or the tip of the pen, but you could just click that and it should reset the system. If anything, the code should be 0000, at least my default code was that. Hope this helps!
