Cd player locked
It has a defective ribbon cable between the face and the motherboard. This is a common repair, but must be done by a repair shop. My shop charges around $60-70 for parts and labor for that repair, to give you a ballpark of what to expect.
Need the code
Hi, If this Kenwood has a mode button, ie a button that will decide which source to play like radio,cd,tape or aux try pressing the main power on button and the mode button at the same time for 5 seconds it may then display the word code and allow you to put the code in if you know it, if you dont, you will need to have its memory erased by a kenwood dealer.
