Possible Kenwood coach stereo fix if yours doesn't work...

Post by Dano »

My Kenwood radio/stereo/CD player wouldn't give me any power. Pulled the head out of it's compartment, flipped it around and found a blown, 10 amp mini fuse in the back. Swapped it out and all works perfectly now...Good luck! Dano

Dano, I think you have more blown fuse than anyone I know. :) What did the previous owner did to the rig? Hit by lightning or carelessness?

Near as I can tell, he did have the converter section of the power supply replaced so an electrical surge could have been a possibility. Luckily, I have the receipts for all the new parts so am glad it was all changed. I knew that before I bought it at least but it doesn't change the fact they were pretty non forthcoming about all the little things that needed fixing and there has been a LOT of those. The good news is that they had also spent a ton on other really big items so it makes up for some pain :)
