Power cable I need a power cable for kenwood ts440sat

To disable the Kenwood KAC-8404 amplifier, follow these steps:

1. Turn off the power to the amplifier by removing the fuse or turning off the power switch if available.
2. Disconnect the RCA cables from the amplifier's input jacks and the speaker wires from the output terminals.
3. Check the connections and make sure they are secure and free of corrosion.
4. Reconnect the cables and wires, making sure they are properly connected and secure.
5. Turn the power back on and test the amplifier to see if it is working properly.

If the amplifier still does not work, there may be an issue with the internal components and it may need to be repaired or replaced.

Hi Slick, From my experience working on Toyota motor vehicles, they don't use colour coding. You'll need to identify the cables with a voltmeter and an used AA or AAA battery (like those from the TV remote). First find the constant power (which keeps the memory function of the set powered. Then by a process of elimination turn on the ignition and check each of the other cables until you find the ignition switched power. Check to make sure it' switched by turning the ignition on and off. To identify the speaker cables there should be a number of white cables with black tracer lines. Take any pair (removing a little insulation from the end to leave the metal cable open) and hold one cable onto the negative end of the battery and swipe the other cable end over the positive. As you do that the cable speaker will make a popping sound, where by you can identify which speaker is attached to what set of cables. Regards John

I doubt it. Use the existing power cable if it is the correct size. Otherwise a trip to B+Q may be needed.
Hope that helps.

Hello opey_69a,

Here are the troubleshooting steps for fuses blowing.
1) Remove all wiring except ground, power and remote and see if the amp powers up without blowing the fuses. If it does, the problem is in the input cables or speaker wiring.
2) The use of loudspeaker impedances below the recommended minimums will cause the amp to draw excessive current - check.
3) A shorted or grounded RCA cable may cause the fuses to blow - check.
4) If an amplifier fuse blows continually, with only +12 volt, ground and remote leads connected, the amplifier is probably defective, most likely shorted output MOSFET's. In this case the amp needs professional repair or replacement.

Hope this helps.

What size fuse are you using? You need a 30-
amp at least and #8 to #10 wire I would go
with the # 8 maybe lower, if it blows a fuwse
now you have a shorted output in your amp.
May This Will Help.

it sounds to me like its burnt.but with some amps the screws that hold it in place have to be screwed into the car chassisfor grounding. be careful not to srewe into hidden wires.

You may have a high resistance in your positive or negative power supply. with your amp you need to use at least a 2 gauge power cable. Is your fuse blowing? if so then a short circuit to ground may be causing that.
Good luck

if its the new gen ipod kenwood needs to come out with a new cable. Old cable does not work on video
