Scroll down to page 15 on this link i gave you. If you removed the factory stereo, don't throw away the connector that plugs in to the back of the factory radio.

You must enter Standy mode to adjust the clock. To do this Press the (SRC) button. Select the "STBY" display
1. Select Clock Adjustment Mode Push the Control knob (the one on the right) towards (FM) or (AM) Select the "CLCK" display. 2. Enter **** Adjust mode Press the Control knob for at least 1 second. The clock display blinks. 3. Adjust the hours Push the Control knob towards (FM) or (AM). Adjust the minutes Push the Control knob towards ( '>' ) 4.

What you need to do is this:
1. Make sure your player is in the mode Standby. Or "STBY" is what I think it sais.
2. Hold down the menu button until "MENU" Pops up.
3. IMPORTANT: Push DOWN on the right stick to go to different options. One should be AUH. This is the option for Auxillary. By pushing right on the right control stick type thing, you should be able to turn it on.
4. Place the radio back in STBY mode. No push the "SRC' or source button to switch between your sources. AUH should be one of them.
5. Plug in your Aux cable and rock out to the MP3 player of your choice.
Normally I don't comment on threads such as these, but I've spent a long time figuring it out, and I thought I'd shared it with others. Hope you find this helpful.

I'm not sure what it means, but try hitting the little tiny reset button on the front of the deck to fix it.

The memory wire(yellow) should connected to a constant 12 volt source( battery).

Look on the back to see if there is an auxilary socket plus on the front of the unit, is there an aux button to allow an input from an auxilary device. If you dont have a manual I would go to Kenwoods web site and enter in the model and see if you can download a user manual.

there is a power lead that must be attached to a power source that is on regardless of the key being on or off.

Most likely the memory power wire is hooked up to a switch power feed. Change it to one that is hot all the time and you should be good. Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sean_54c3a3dc48a7773c

did you just put it in? did you use harness adapter? if already installed a blown speaker can cause it to not play

Tap the SRC button until the unit is in standby. Press and hold BBoost/Menu button. release. Move control knob on the right up or down until you find 'off AUH'. Move control knob to the left or right to change to on and tap the BBoost/Menu button to exit
