Hello george_nutti,

The model number you posted is for a center channel speaker which has no controls, and not knowing the exact model number it's difficult to be specific.

Some Kenwood KDC models allow you to select one of 3 "tuning modes", 1) AUTO1 - Automatic search for stations; 2) AUTO2 - Search Preset stations; 3) MANUAL - Normal manual tuning control. If your Kenwood is one of these models, you need to set the tuning mode to MANUAL. For Kenwood Excelon HD receivers, direct access tuning is done by using the included remote. 1) Press DIRECT button on the remote; 2) Press number buttons to enter desired channel number; 3) Press DIRECT button again to exit direct tuning.

Hope this helps.

1. Tune the radio to the frequency you want to preset, using the "Tuning/Set" buttons.
2. Press "Time Set" button to enter set mode. Note it says "Preset" below this button, because it is used to set both time set and presets.
3. Select the preset number you want, using the "Preset" buttons.
4. Press "Time Set" button again to exit set mode.
5. Repeat the above process for each preset.

when you get to the station you want push both seek buttons at the same time the left and the right

Sounds like it's wired up wrong. You need to refit the radio with the memory wire on a permanent live. Check that yellow and red wires aren't connected together, one is main power one is radio memory. Main power should go to the acc on you ignition and like I said the other goes to a permamnet live. The harness should look like this . . . . V
