Protect Mode is displayed

It usually means something is drawing too much current---a short inside the unit----idea is to prevent a chain reaction that frys half the unit.Consider having a shop look at it and do check to make sure all the connections are correct.

How do i hook up my tv sound to play through my

The following are the best I can do without specifics re: your TV and other TV-related equipment.

Since a TV without an antenna is rarely the source of any programming it is best to feed the receiver the best sound available from the device where it originates - cable / sat / DVD / BluRay / games. Your receiver probably has plenty of inputs to accomodate al of these. I also run the video directly to my TV, which has several video inputs, from each source because IT deserves the best unadulterated video.

If you have a cable box and want the best sound, get it directly and digitally from the cable box and run it to the receiver. Then leave the TV's speakers off for critical viewing with good sound.

The sound has stopped working

This is a problem with the output transistors that power your speakers. This is a problem for a professional unfortunately.

Kenwood vr6050 receiver sudden loud static or

Kenwood sound units are probably market leaders in most parts of the world because of the durability and high standard of their products. When loud screeching sounds and static is are heard on sound systems in most cases it is as a result of poor wire connections to the speakers. Check the wires to the speakers most likely the screeching and static is coming from those.
Also static could also be caused by mobile devices being close to the receiver. Mobile devices such as internet modems and mobile phones as well as radio transmitting devices could cause static and screeching.
Hope this solution has been helpful?

I have direct satalite tv VR 6050 kenwood

that reciever is not going to carry a hi definition video signal, it doesnt have either hdmi or component video inputs.

you can still use it, but if you run the picture through the reciever, it will have poor quality.

heres how you are supposed to hook it up:

find the single,m yellow video jack on your sattelite box, and hook that up to the "tv" video input, then hook the laft and right audio outputs from the cable box into the "tv" audio left and right inputs on the receiver. hook up the dvd player and vcr in the same manner, using "dvd" and "VCR" (if labeled as such) inputs on the reciever.

finally, send the tv video and audio outputs to the composite video in and left/right audio inputs on the tv. the video will be running through the reciever, and when you use the reciever to switch the sound source, the video will also be changed. you could get better picture quality if you ran the video directly to the tv using component (seperate green, red and blue) outputs/inputs, and bypassing the reciever on the video end, but then you would have to change inputs on the tv AND reciever to change from your cable box to your dvd player.

No sound from front right and left speakers

you may have a dc condition present on speaker outputs. this could be caused by dry solder joints, suggest blanket resolder of the output stages for front channels.

How do I change the input from analog to digital or optical on my Kenwood Kraft-v7772d? Thanks

To switch the input on your Kenwood KRF-V7772D receiver from analog to digital or optical, follow these steps: Check the Manual: First, consult the user manual for detailed instructions specific to your model. If you don't have the manual, you can find it online. The manual provides step-by-step guidance on how to change inputs. Input Selector Button: On the front panel of your receiver, look for the Input Selector button. It might be labeled as "Input," "Source," or something similar. Press this button to cycle through the available input sources. On-Screen Menu: Some receivers allow you to change inputs using an on-screen menu. If your Kenwood receiver has this feature, navigate to the menu using your remote control. Look for an option related to input selection or source. Remote Control: Use your remote control to directly select the desired input. Look for buttons labeled with input sources (e.g., "DVD," "CD," "TV," "Optical," etc.). Press the appropriate button to switch to the desired input. Digital Inputs: If you want to switch to a digital input (such as optical or coaxial), ensure that your digital audio source (e.g., Blu-ray player, game console, etc.) is connected to the corresponding input on the back of the receiver. For optical input, connect the optical cable to the "Optical In" port. Analog Inputs: If you prefer an analog input, connect your analog audio source (e.g., turntable, cassette player, etc.) to the appropriate analog input on the back of the receiver. Remember to adjust the settings on your connected devices (e.g., TV, Blu-ray player) to output audio through the selected input on the Kenwood receiver. If you encounter any issues, refer to the service manual for further troubleshooting

My kenwood excelon DPX594BT audio suddenly cut out, why?

Check Speaker Wiring: Ensure that the speaker wires are properly connected to the stereo unit. Loose or damaged wiring can cause sound interruptions. Inspect the connections at both ends (stereo unit and speakers) to make sure they are secure. Bluetooth Pairing Data: Since you've already reset the car stereo and deleted all devices, let's focus on Bluetooth. Go to the Settings menu on your Kenwood system. Select Bluetooth and look for the option to Clear All Paired Devices. This will remove any existing Bluetooth pairings. After clearing the paired devices, try reconnecting your phone or other Bluetooth devices to see if the sound returns. Device Reset: Sometimes a simple reset can help. Turn off the car stereo completely and disconnect the power source (e.g., by removing the car battery cable). Wait for a few minutes, then reconnect the power and turn the stereo back on. Check if the sound is restored. Firmware Update: Visit the Kenwood website and check if there are any firmware updates available for your model. If updates are available, follow the instructions to install them. Sometimes software updates can address audio-related issues. Blue TI Light Flashing: The flashing blue TI light over BT1 indicates that the stereo is trying to establish a Bluetooth connection. Make sure your phone or other Bluetooth devices are discoverable and within range. Try pairing your phone again and see if the sound works. Manual Reference: For more detailed troubleshooting steps, refer to the Kenwood Excelon DPX594BT user manual. The manual provides information on settings, troubleshooting, and common issues. Remember that car stereo issues can be caused by various factors, including wiring, software glitches, or hardware problems. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider seeking professional assistance or contacting Kenwood customer support.
