You probably blew it up. Whenever you smell that smell it is almost always a capacitor in there that blew.

Kenwood kac 628 red light comes on and no audio output
The red light you describe on your amp, is the protection mode warning light. An amp goes into protect for many reasons. Here's a checklist.

1st check the fuse (s) on your amp and make sure they are not blown.

2nd check the inline fuse next to your car battery (if you have an inline fuse)

3rd, disconnect the speaker wires with amp on, does the light go off?

4th check your ground, this may be ok if you have tried another amp with the same wires.

5th.if none of these turns the protect mode off, it may be an internal fault.

you may have blown transistors and it is a tricky job to repair and costly.

Kenwood kac-9104d stopped working was in car music loud amp stoped worked I stop to change fuse it wasn't blown popped hood that amp was blown don't know what's wrong with it
Turn your gain below half. Make sure you have a solid ground, not a seat belt bolt. The fuse blew to protect the vehicle because there was too much power being pulled by the amp, possibly from overheating.

Kenwood kac X811d amp was shot by a positive wire and went off. What could have blown?
could be the board could be just some fuses on the amp and in the power wire sometimes it actually blows the computer on your car but rarely.

installing amp with a factory amp I bought a 2005 Pontiac Vibe, with a factory amp under the passenger seat that powers the regular speakers and a built in Monsoon speaker. I replaced the head unit, and installed my Kenwood Excelon KAC-X521 and 2 12" Dual's. I have everything set right, but very little sound is coming from the subs, is there special wiring needed to use an aftermarket amp with a factory amp?
