Aftermarket radio
 

Hey folks, so i recently installed a jvc radio, went to go turn the car on and the radio went straight to protection mode!! Do i have to send it back or is there a special code i can do to by-pass it? Thanks!! Its the JVC kd-r975bts

did u even try searching the net? how bout the user manual that came with the radio? what's it say about this?

Double check your wiring

Had this problem with a kenwood head unit, and it ended up being a weak ground. Fixed that and there was a little reset button behind the face plate and it was fine

There was a kenwood deck in the car when i bought it, but wanted to get a better looking one and one with blutooth. Took out the old kenwood, put the new jvc in and it went straight into protection mode! So thats why im at a loss, nothing changed from me unplugging the kenwood to plugging in the jvc

Try bench testing the new JVC unit. Use a 12V power supply and a speaker.

I'd start by checking the wiring and try powering it on with the radio out of the slot.
