Need to reset the code on my Kenwood deck.

hi, seeing that your kenwood showed up "protect" you may have an audio circuit/amplifier fault within the unit. try resetting the unit to see if unit comes "on" again. if the unit comes on and protect flashes again, then you definitely have an internal audio circuit fault. if not then check all power connections(yellow and red wire voltages, as well as ground connection), as well as the condition of the face pins!

code for a kenwook kdc mp4032

try 3051 or 1234

Unfortunately KENWOOD codes are not available for free from anywhere on the Internet.

Main Dealer or a Decoding Service ( Try Google or Ebay )

Actually, yes! That could very well damage any unit without a protection mode. Unfortunately, in my long time experience in car audio, a deck that spits cd's out has a damaged or misaligned laser lens. This could be caused by driving to fast through pot holes, speedbumps, or going down train tracks. Find an electronics repair shop locally to see if having it repaired will out weigh a new deck. I found one new in box on ebay for $89 + shipping.

Try disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes. If not, you may need to hard reset by holding down the reset button for at least 10 seconds.

Hi, there

I think that there is a code error in your device. You should take it to a Kenwood store and they will put a new code in it.

Good luck.

hi you have 2 options:
1 - pay for the code/remote via kenwood service agent you will need proof of ownership
2 - send for re-codeing - the code system can be switched off.

we can do this for you if you are in the uk, please see: http://carradiospares.co.uk/kenwood-recode-p-213.html
