Miswiring error code on Kenwood

What to check when you get a miswiring error code on a Kenwood KDC-BT562U. Hope it helps and saves you some money.

Just got this problem few hours ago.. tried your method and it work! Thanks for your help

[@99shadows66]

Hello and thank you for posting this video. I was at my wit's end and ready to replace my Kenwood KMR-D562BT marine radio. I tried all the suggestions found on other KZbin videos with little to no success. I removed the aluminum heat sink as you suggested and like yours, the terminals on the lower section of that chip were corroded horribly. I cleaned and brushed die-electric grease on the terminals and the back of the heat sink, I reassembled everything and so far my radio has been working properly. The sad part is, it's a marine radio that's supposed to be sealed against the elements yet Kenwood chooses to leave these terminals exposed to the weather. Can you say "Planned obsolescence"! Thanks again.

You are a gentleman and a scholar Sir. Haha you saved me SOOO much time. I have a different model, but it had the same plate on the back. It works great now. Thank you!!

I have a JVC unit. It did not have any corrosion but I blew it out with compressed air and now no error! Thanks.

[@kevlyn36]

THANK YOU!!! I was ready to buy a new radio, but this worked!. I used a brass small brush. and blew it out. it took off right away!

Good video man thanks for the heads up. Been having trouble with my subs and didn’t even cross my mind to looks at the head unit.

[@andersonchad89]

Great video. Checked mine and sure enough, corroded just like yours. Thanks for your help

[@christopherlewis1017]

Sure this help multiple people, just don’t understand why I’m seeing most of these problems are from Ken wood stereos. I’ve recently brought the KMM-BT732HD last week and having these same problems

[@markbulza-idreamrealty4572]

Yes it worked! Your awesome!! Thanx for saving me a headache!!

[@jakenolan5694]

THANK YOU!!! Sorted out the same error message on a Kenwood KMR-D562BT. To future-proof, would you (or anyone else) recommend a cleaning solvent and a protectant? Toward that end, can the chip (?) be "unplugged" so that it can be soaked/cleaned and then treated to prevent future corrosion? In case it helps anyone searching for a solution - the exact error message on my deck was: MISWIRING CHECK WIRING THEN PWR ON miswiring check wiring then pwr on

[@ondiznutz]

Glad it helped... I'm no expert but I would try some silicone GREASE for electronics. Just a thin coat...

[@jakenolan5694]

I'll give it a shot - thanks! My deck is supposedly a Marine deck - so I can no doubt expect more corrosion if I don't treat it. Thanks again - this fix is absolute GENIUS!

[@andreasgebauer5322]

Great! Thank you very much. Problem solved

[@connorcarlson6596]

Man you just saved me lol I was about to throw this thing away. First it was in protective mode and then I fixed that with another video and I got exited cause it finally was out of protect mode but then it just kept saying miss wired this helped

[@horusgarcia1]

I removed that heat sink and it worked. Don't know for how long but I put it back on and it returned to Miswiring.... Code. I screwed it back on with 1 screw. Weird. Some short with the screws. Now, I added the 2 remaining screws and now it works. It didn't work.

[@jeffries1232]

My brand new one is doing this too

[@THCMusicBlog]

You're supposed to apply thermal paste to that cpu plate before screwing that heatsink back on. Otherwise it'll overheat and damage the cpu

[@ondiznutz]

Probably right but video is over 4 year old and radio is still going strong in a different vehicle now

[@byrdrobert1]

That was exactly what it was. Thanks

[@leovidura]

Mine got another problem..deck unit says "Call" and suddenly stops Tuner as well as USB or whatever that time plays..Did lot of things to reset unit but no chance..Model num KDC-U 263R..Any suggestions to reset..

[@vani474]

I have the same problem the error say miswiring and then pwr on i try with the other radio but speakers not working. I try the radio to another car working perfectly what is the problem?

[@fernandovargas182]

I will give it a try thanks helpful info Thanks

[@wmcknigify]

What did you do after taking the back off. Did you just clean what you could see or did you pull that part off to clean

[@ondiznutz]

I cleaned what I could see with the limited tools I had at the time... rag, toothpick, knife, and compressed air.... it had corrosion across all those pins causing it to short out.

[@edwinmiranda7289]

Took the back off and sure enough that was the issue. Had someone power it up and the error code was gone.

[@wtnawe09]

How did you get the radio out of the assembly?? Thanks

[@ondiznutz]

Radio should have come with unlatching tools...

[@ryangross6392]

Thank you!!

[@crisknapp1990]

Mine keeps doing it I'm getting fed up kdc-x304. I'd like to thank the bozos at dukes car stereo 4 charging me $250 and doing nothing to help me. They refuse to honor their warranty
