Try checking your speakers and speaker wires for shorts and/or grounds. If your speakers and speaker wires check out, you may have a bad internal output ic.

A speaker wire has a short-circuit, crossed, or touches the chassis of the vehicle it activates the protection mode function.

Hi.

The unit goes on protected mode when an internal fault is detected.

Try disconnecting the battery cable for five minutes . If there is no fault you will clear protected mode.

If the unit still goes on protect, then check the wiring at the back, a short in there can trigger protectedd mode. If that does not work, then there is an internal fault. In that case the unit must be disassembled and tested.

Regards.

try checking you speakers and speaker wires for shorts or grounds. if they check good try pressing the reset switch. if none of these work, you probably have a bad output ic.

This is a link to Kenwood for your KDC-X492 instruction manual. Look on page 22 for troubleshooting 'Protect Mode'.

Just purchased a kenwood KDC-X492 AND IT SAYS PROTECT WITH A BUNCH OF DOTS ACROSS THE BOTTOM. WHATS THIS?

Press reset button (small circular button need something with a point) to the left of the 1 channel

Turn on the car so the radio is flashing "Protect." Look on the front / removable face of the stereo. On it you will find a small round hole - that's a reset button. Find a small paper clip, unfold the clip and stick it gently into the hole. The "Protect" will stop flashing, and Kenwood will be displayed. Unfortunately all your settings/presets will be gone, but at least the stereo is working again!
