Hook up the power source to the battery, wire in some speakers.

You would need to get that from Kenwood.

The speaker wire may have a short. See page 18 of this manual: http://www.greenacreswv.com/Instruction%20Manuals/Manuals/Kenwood%20KDC-MP242/Kenwood%20KDC-MP242.pdf

I found a website that will help you out. Use the follwoing link and go to page 16. Hope this helps you.

you probably have bad solder connections on some surface mount resistors inside of the radio. they would be on the right side of the radio as it is facing you. they need to be resoldered.

The Blue/White wire, Brown wire, and Blue wire???? These don't have to be connected unless you are using a separate Power Amp...if you are, then the Blue/White wire needs to be used to switch on the power amp. Here is a link to Kenwood for your KDC-MP242 Instruction Manual. Reference page 16.

Just input your model number in the third search field, download the user manual, then look on page 25 for wiring connections. Hope this helps.

Hello alleycat121,

The KDC-MP235 was replaced with the KDC-MP238 which was replaced with the KDC-MP242, the current model. It's an entry-level receiver that retails new for around $120 with online prices around $75-100.

If the receiver is in good working condition, and you have all of the paperwork and installation accessories, it should be worth about 50% of new cost.

Hope this helps.
