My kenwood stereo was installed and I have to manually turn it off and on. How do I fix it to turn on and off with the car?
The blue wire (acc./remote) is not connected to the ignition. It must be directly wired to the power which has power all the time. The blue wire needs to be connected to a power source where it turns on and off when the key is turned on and off
Puull the radio out and make sure all the colors match up. it sounds like your red wire(constant power or ACC) is hooked up to your yellow wire(BATTERY)
You must have the yellow and the red wires tied together on a constant voltage source.
Only the yellow wire should be on a constant voltage source.
The red wire should only get voltage when the ignition is turned on or in the acc. position.
You need to rewire the red wire on the radio.
Let me know if it helps.

in front of your #1 preset button there is a reset button push it with a pin. if you made a pass # put it in if not page 12 show you how to make one if you want. reseting it should make it work if it dont you have a short somewhere start from scratch buy taking it out. I suggest you dont make a password till the short is gone. Mine did the same thing but because i was pulling to much power on starting my car with my amps.
