Why does my radio not work in my kenwood TT756sl radio toaster, how do i fix it

Try opening it up carefully and checking for lose connections, especially the microphone. On second thought most radio communication devices don't allow you to do that so it may be difficult. To test and see if it's the microphone and not the transmitter circuit listen to another radio while you press the button if you hear static or a small pop that means it should be an easy fix if you can get inside. Also what kind of things have you tried already?

Your Kenwood radio has programmable squelch. It is accessible through the software. However, if the squelch knob (pot) has been broken, it must be fixed or replaced. Move the control knobs back and forth, do either move more than say 1/16 of an inch? If so, they likely broke inside. You could open the radio, resolder the switch, which I called a pot and see if that works. If not, take it to a dealer or sadly, buy another radio.

Many times static/white noise is a sign of a bad or low battery. You might try trading the battery with a known good unit to see if the problem goes away. Also, you may want to check your antenna, trade it with a known good antenna and see if it is the issue. Beyond this your radio would need to be looked at by a repair tech.

Best regards.

At some point a STUN signal was sent to the radio possibly because it was STOLEN. The owner/agency/company or radio shop thought this was necessary because of security or malicious interference to the system. It will need the Kenwood program cable and software to fix it. Perhaps a radio shop can advise you and determine the status of the radio??

There maybe some grounded wires or static, check your car stereo wirings.

It could be your browning control is not working or it needs to be moved to a darker setting.

I could not find the instructions for your specific model but in order to achieve uniform browning it is recommended you wait a minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting to allow the control to automatically reset. This could be the problem if the first cycle of toasting completes correctly; you need to wait the minimum 30 seconds before starting a second cycle.

If the product is less than a year old and under certain condition Kenwood will replace.

sounds like a bad radio install or radio is bad

The same thing happened to me today and I've been searching the internet for other complaints. It happened exactly as you said, I heard a buzzing noise and went to see what it was and it was the toaster- smoke started to come out from the top. Please report your experience to the CPSC! http://www.cpsc.gov/index.html This thing needs to be recalled!

I would be willing to bet you have a 8v regulator circuit failure in hideaway Box. I have seen many of these units where a resistor opens and causes 12v instead of 8v to appear at tuner and a few other IC's. Usually But not always destroys tuner.

I hope that you have had this unit for a while because it has been out of date for quite some time. I had this unit as well and furtunately the problems exsisted while under warrenty and I was able to get it fixed. Version 2 seemed to be better, the (A2). Sorry for the info, but vA1 was a bad unit if you ask me.
