Usually the protect is a safe mode to indicate that your set is unsafe. Starrt by checking the speakers, speaker wires for shorting. detach the speaker lines and power on the set for confrimation. check in power/auxially circuits in the set. it is possible that your mechanism drive / audio output drive Ic's could have shorted. Most of these cirrcuits have an error detection of higher current to cut off power and issue a protect warning. so discoonect the IC power to confirm. Hope this helps. Good day

Good day,

The illum wire goes directly to the headlight switch and tells it when to light up, where as the dimmer wire is variable meaning it would dim up or down with your dash light control. Dimmmer is usually only need on factory radio's and not aftermarket. I suggest wiring only to the illuum lead and do not connect dim. Also about the clock make sure your red and yellow wires are not crossed, yellow is a constant hot and red is only hot when the ignition is on, so if they are backwards the radio would loose it's memory when you turn the key off.

Hope this helps

use source boton to put the radio on standby, press and hold setup boton, and you will see a hide menu. and find demo mode and turn it off.

it means your cd mech has a problem.

if there are no shorts in the speakers or speaker wires, then you probably have a bad output ic inside the radio.

unplug the ipod, start playing the playlist you want, and plug it back in

Hi, red = ingnition power black = ground yellow = constant +12v blue = remote. There should be 8 wires bunched 4 colours & 4 same colours with white stripes. These you will have to experiment with your cars wiring. This is just a eneral rule for most stereo wiring.
Hope it helps.

i think its not safe sometimes need rest and protect your battery save power

Unfortunately Kenwood codes are only available from the Main Dealer or by using a Radio Decoding Service who will connect a laptop to read the working code inside your radio`s memory chip (EEPROM)

it is very important to tell me wat car are you working on, some of the new cars came with factory amp you need turn it on or by pass it call me for more info at 520-882-8979

Press the control knob down for at least 2 seconds...this will toggle between sub on and off. If you accidentally turned sub off, it will not appear in the setting menu.

Press and hold the reset button (very small concave button to the right and below the main knob) You will have to set up everything on the unit because this will wipe the settings. It will also set the unit to the default of not using the security code. I recommend setting a code so if it locks accidentally, you know what the code is. There is no factory default for this on Kenwoods...it is user programmable.

there is a small button just to the right and under the control knob. Push and hold this button in standby mode. That will reset the unit. Once the unit is reset, you will need to set all of your other settings as well as the security code.

Once reset, press the SRC display until you are in standby mode. Now Press Enter. Code set should be displayed. using the control knob (Up, down left and right) set the security code. The unit will ask you to confirm this. Once you enter it twice, the unit will read "APPROVED." Now you can set your filters and other settings and enjoy!

The code on Kenwoods is user programmable and is not set from the factory. You will have to reset the unit and go through the procedure to set a personal code.

For GM should be an orange or orange/black wire, hot at all times. Use a test light or voltmeter to test if in doubt.
