Hi, same thing happened to my one of the above. I bought a cheap dvd player to view movies and run the audio through the kenwood to use the surround speakers.

One of the motors in the mechanism died making a near short circuit. When the DVD tries to energize the motor, a lot of current passes through the circuits making the PSU protection to shut down the power supply to avoid damage or fire.
To get the movie out, you'll have to disassemble the DVD player and remove the disk. After that the DVD will be unusable because of the failing motor. The replacement often is more expensive than buying a new Chinese DVD player.

Sorry we do not sell anything. You should be able to find one or a compatible remote controller on eBay.

If your Kenwood TS-690S is not powering on, here are some things you can check:

1. Power source: Make sure the power source is working properly. Check the power outlet, power cord, and any fuses or breakers that might be involved.
2. Power switch: Check the power switch on the back of the unit. Make sure it is in the "on" position.
3. Battery: If your unit has an internal battery, check to make sure it is charged and working properly.
4. Connections: Check all the connections between the radio and any other devices it is connected to. Make sure they are securely connected and that there is no corrosion or damage.
5. Internal components: If none of the above solutions work, there may be an issue with the internal components of the radio. In this case, it is best to take it to a professional for repair or contact Kenwood customer service for further assistance.

You most likely have a shorted or grounded wire. First remove all the speaker wires with the power off then power it on to see what happens. If it powers on just fine then it's one of the speaker wires that's causing the problem. Power it back off and add one speaker wire then power it back on and repeat the process until you find the culprit. If it doesn't power on initially with the speaker wires disconnected then the problem lies in the main power, the remote power wire or quite possibly a poor ground which is very very common.
