From what you are explaining here, it suggests that there is an internal problem with the amp (Blown mosfets, pre-amp etc.) I suggest taking the amp to an authorised service centre.

Best subs for the kenwood x812d

Try and match the rms output of the amp to the speaker , if the amp puts out 150 watts RMS make sure your speaker is at least 150 watts RMS.

Which speakers (Front/Rear) to buy that match Kenwood KAC-M846 4/3/2 Channel Amplifier.

I don,t no where you are reading thease articles from,I installed car audio equipment for over 40 years, Untill i retired a couple of months ago, Who ever is writeing those sort of articles does not have the slightest clue what they are talking about, It is the opposite way around, It is allway better for yor (Speakers) To handle more power then what your amp puts out, Then you will not blow the spaekers, It is best to get speakers at least 20 watts more then what your amps maximuin (RMS) Watts are, Hope this helps you out, (PS) 50 watts (RMS) Is what most people go for, It is in no means (Under) Powered.

I need to know the wattege of a kenwood kac -624

The KAC-624 is a 40 watt x2 @ 4 ohm RMS amp. 55 watt x2 @ 2ohm. 110 watt x 1 Bridged I assume at 4 ohm. Manual does not specify. It can run 2 ohm in stereo mode but is unclear on mono impedance requirement. It can run 4 ohm mono at 110 watt but at 2 ohm?

How do you get the Kenwood KAC X812D out of protection mode? Apparently it locked up because of the E-03 code (speaker power wire came in contact with ground)

turn the ign off and then back on, or disconnect the power or remote wire to do the same...

It comes on but

I believe that the amplifier is in protection mode; more than likely you either have an internal short in the amp or a bad speaker running off of the amp.

Transistors

If it's only 2 months old, it should be under warranty. Have you tried to get it repaired under warranty?

Any car audio repair shop should be able to repair it.

If you want to repair it yourself, it's possible but you'd need basic test equipment and soldering/desoldering tools.

The following page shows you the basics for amp repair. Your amp is somewhat different than the one shown but the troubleshooting/repair procedure would be similar.
