I kenwood TK-2000 radios. when I read the radio, all the frequencies listed are vhf frequencies.but when I program a vhf frequency it says it is out of band it can only accept 400 to 440 mhz.

Based on the information you provided, it seems like the Kenwood TK-2000 radios you have may have been programmed with the wrong band split. The TK-2000 is available in both VHF and UHF frequency ranges, and it's possible that the radios you have are actually UHF models, despite being listed as VHF frequencies when you read the radios. To check if your radios are UHF or VHF, look for a label on the back of the radio that specifies the frequency range. If it says UHF, then the radios can only accept frequencies in the 400-440 MHz range. If it says VHF, then the radios should be able to accept frequencies in the VHF frequency range. If you've confirmed that the radios are indeed VHF models, then it's possible that the band split settings may need to be adjusted in the programming software to match the specific VHF frequencies you're trying to program. I recommend checking the manual for your programming software to ensure that you have selected the correct band split settings before programming the radios. If you're still having issues, it may be helpful to contact Kenwood customer support for further assistance.

How can i change the japanese language in kenwood mdv-x701w?

first off it is NOT A CAMERA. IT A CAR Kenwood MDV-X701W navigation -SYSTEM. ask the maker, these NAVS are sold all over the world and they are not the same. some are sold to only 1 country in 1 language others are sold in universal. class in many languages even 21 choices if it is a Universal, the setting would list it, so my guess is , not in my hands it is not. so ask them maker, most will ask you the NAV SERIAL NUMBER AND THEN LOOK IT UP AT KENWOOD, AND TELL YOU. The you ask for , firmware update to your unstated language from Japanese. ask them https://navigationdiskjp.com/tag/kenwood-mdv-z700-change-language/ or youtube it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75T7zI9yCS8 this found 5 th google hit. ask ing same thing.

I just picked up this Kenwood V-7030 tuner, by far one of the strongest I've had yet,I was looking at the back ohms setting on here. Can I hook up car audio subs 2 this? newish to home equip. Thanks

This could get complicated. Your safest option is to use home audio subwoofers as that will be a simple plug in and use setup. If you want to run car subwoofers to a mains powered tuner you will need to know what the Ohm rating is for that sub. The Ohms rating must be the same on both the speaker and sub.. Too low and you risk blowing the Amp/Receiver. Too high and you'll get very poor sound. Car audio equipment is also designed to run on 12 volts where Home audio uses 110v or 240v so that can cause issues as well.

Kenwood xr600-1 I have it Hooked to a jensen 1200 watT and a capacitor red lights on but sub still hitting hard as they should, but my bat? being drawn way down kinda hot whats wrong ?

Those capacitors don't add any power they just store power in between bass notes but if you don't have enough current going to it through your power wire and don't have a good ground to bare shiny metal with a wire lug your not going to get a good connection. Also I spray clear coat or rubberized under coating or something over the ground connection so it doesn't corrode in the future and cause you to loose current. If you have the small Jensen 1200 with the lights on it those amp really only put out about 600 true watts. The type of wire your using and fuse sizing makes a big big difference. I used to only use OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) Audio power wire which is pure copper butearnwd about welding cable and it carries much more current and is cheaper and you cab buy it by the foot at ACDCWIREANDSUPPLY.COM so you don't have any extra wire. The shorter a wire is the more current it can carry. Also if you don't have your big 3 done under the hood or know what it is look it up on YouTube. I always run a AGM battery in the back close as possible to my amp and a $20 Stinger Pro adjustable Voltmeter off the amp itself so I can see the amps voltage in real accurate time. Get you a AGM battery, AGM battery, $20 Voltmeter, make good grounds to shiny bare metal. You can get a 10 pk of copper wire lugs online for $10 or less.

My Kenwood car audio screen seem to be flaking off. What can I use to clean it and remove all the rest of what seems to be peeling off please?

My guess is that someone left on the thin protective plastic film instead of removing it. Over time, it degrades and flakes. Spray WD40 on a cloth and try cleaning a corner of it. WD40 is kerosene based and shouldn't damage the plastic but should loosen the tack glue that is used on it.

Kenwood Kmm328 is Blinking RED

Take it to a Kenwood authorised repair shop. The face plate could be the fault, try the new face plate in the old radio to check.
