20 Most Recent Kenwood KDC-W3534A CD Player Questions & Answers

Turn on the car so the radio is flashing "Protect." Look on the front / removable face of the stereo. On it you will find a small round hole - that's a reset button. Find a small paper clip, unfold the clip and stick it gently into the hole. The "Protect" will stop flashing, and Kenwood will be displayed. Unfortunately all your settings/presets will be gone, but at least the stereo is working again!

Normally caused by bad speaker, shorted speaker wire, or speaker impedence too low (lower than 4 ohm).

The speaker wire has a short or is touching the vehicle chassis. See the Troubleshooting Guide on page 22 of this manual.

You may download a copy of the manual here.

Yellow from Connector A needs to be connected to a constant (unswitched) 12V+ source. Depending on the make and model of your vehicle, and whether or not you are using a vehicle-specific wiring harness, you may be able to simply connect the spade connectors or you may need to tap into the vehicle wiring.

Here's the manual. The wiring color code and diagram is on page 25.

you will need to input the security code. this happens if you unplug your car battery. or lost power.

If it is in protect mode then you have a short in your system. A blown speaker will cause it to go into protect mode, also if there are any power supply problems like a loose ground wire or a sketchy connection at the wiring harness it will also trip. My advice is pull the deck check power supply and ground and wiring harness, if it doesnt go away you know its the speakers.It may however need to reset and you will need to unplug the wire bundle from the deck for a moment before getting into the messing with the speakers or wires. Hopefully that cures it so test it and see. Okay if that didnt fix it then you likely have a blown speaker somewhere in the vehicle so get that replaced and rock on.

is the yellow wire going to a constant power source?
