Question about Kenwood KAC-9152D Car Audio Amplifier

Fan stays on, light turns off

I connected all the wiring and when i turn the car on, the red light stays on for a second and then fades off but the fan continues to stay on. There is no audio output to the sub other than a quick popping noise when the light turns on. i checked the voltage and everything checks out fine. i am transferring the system to my new car and it worked fine in my old car. I have tried connecting the power control wire straight to the battery to see if my unit wasn't giving off enough power to keep the amp on, i got the same result.

Try using a better ground. while new cars are great, they also have more paint and plastic in the works...so finding a good ground for your amp to run off of isnt always easy. you can try running a gbround cable straight to the negative terminal of your battery to test the amp, poor grounding is the most comon cause of amp failure. ps,the fan may be staying on as a protective service, as if your amp loses ground whenpowered up it will keep the cicuit boardfrom heating up on voltage surges.

My Hunter Douglas ceiling fan/light operates with a wall remote. It suddenly stopped working. When I tried out putting in a new battery the fan still does not work but the light turns on bright briefly,...

rats have gotten into your electrical wirings, probably gnawed the wires to fan totally and partially on the lights, might still find the dead rat on the wirings.

I did not make a diagram when replacing the light switch

Red from switch goes to two blacks, blue from switch goes to two blacks and the black wire goes thru top of light and attaches to blue fan light wire. If you want a good fan, look for blade pitch(13 degree or higher)Or CFM's above 5500 on high.

Light only turns on with the remote. How do I set it to turn on with the wall switch?

There are some fan models (particularly with a remote control) that use multiple cycles of a single power switch to select the operating mode. For example, if you simply flip the switch on, you get the fan. If you flip it on, then off, then on again within one second, you get the light. If you flip the switch on - off - on - off - on, you get both. The trick is to do it fast enough so the internal power circuit doesn't run out of capacitor charge and forget what you're trying to get it to do.

I have a three wire switch blue+black+red for the light on my ceiling fan need to know how to hook it up to turn the light on and off have four lights used to be five but took one out cause the fixture was...

Make sure the power is off.
Connect ALL White wires together -- from the ceiling box, the fan and the lights.
Connect the Black wire from the switch to the Black wire in the ceiling box.
Connect the Red wire to the Black wire on the Fan. That should activate on the first pull
Connect the Blue wire to the 4 black wires coming from the lights. That should activate on the second pull.
The third pull should activate both. To change the order, swap the connections to the Red and Blue wires.

I purchased the Legrand RT1 Time Switch to run a bathroom fan. It is installed and I see indicator lights. Every time I turn the fan on, it runs for a second and stops (hearing clicking in the switch);...

You connected red and white wires together.
No problem, nothing burned out, and it's simple to fix. Steps below.

RT1 is electronic countdown timer, and electronic timer clock inside needs separate circuit, just like your alarm clock needs to be plugged in. >> that's why timer has white wire. White wire completes circuit to timer clock.

Manual says:
Timer-black-wire to Hot; Timer-red-wire to Load (lights)
Timer-white-wire to Neutral.
Heres what to do
1) Timer-green-wire connects to bare ground wire.
2) Switch has 2 wires. Take switch wires and connect them to timer-black-wire and timer-red-wire. Choose either one for now.
3) In back of electric box are white wires twisted together and covered with wire nut. Connect timer-white to these wires.
4) If electric box does not have white wires described above, then connect timer-white to bare ground.
5) Turn on electricity, and push countdown button. If lights come on, timer is wired correctly. If lights do not come on, then reverse timer-red and timer-black wires.

Unit only stays on for 4 seconds then turns itself off.

This is a short or unstable ohm load. Remove all speaker wire connections to see if the amp will stay on.
If the problem goes away when disconnecting the speaker wires try this:
1) Check volume level on zone one and zone 2 if connected. If it is too high the amp will go into protect mode and shut off exactly as you described.
2) Make sure no wires are touching any other wire or the metal surface of the amp. This will cause a short and send the amp into protect mode.

Ring of light acting wierd (not red though)

Don't use the intercooler, it's really not good for the console. I'm not sure what could be causing the 'fading' effect, I don't think I've ever heard of this. Call Microsoft and explain your situation, there may also be more info on your problem on sites like xbox-scene.com or llamma. Sorry I can't be of more help but please rate if at all useful, thanks!
