Chapter 5: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting is how you determine what part of a complex system (like a
home entertainment system) is at fault when the system isn’t working how
you think it should. When you troubleshoot a system, you diagnose a
problem by examining and eliminating possible causes until there’s only one
left. Troubleshooting is easiest when you start with the most obvious, most
common, and most likely cause, and work from there.
Diagnosing your own problems can save you time and aggravation—the
better you understand how to troubleshoot and adjust your own system, the
less time you have to:
•
•
spend on the phone with a customer service representative
do without your Axcess because it’s “in the shop”
Here are some basic steps to good troubleshooting:
1. Verify the exact conditions when the problem occurs.
This is the most important step in troubleshooting. Whether you fix it
yourself or have to describe it to a technician, you are much more likely
to solve the problem if you know the exact circumstances surrounding it.
For example, if you don’t hear anything through the speakers, it’s useful
to know if it only happens when you are listening to MP3 files. Knowing
that means the speakers themselves aren’t part of the problem. The more
you know about when a problem occurs, the more likely it is that you or
the technician can solve it.
2. Check each part of the signal’s path from source (such as Axcess) to
speaker.
You may also want to test the assumptions you made in step 1: maybe
you haven’t listened to Internet Radio in a while—is there no sound from
it as well? This step really helps narrow down the possible causes. Test all
your connected devices and eliminate the ones where the problem
doesn’t occur. When you’re done with this step, you’ll probably have
found the problem.
3. Go over all device connections slowly and methodically.
Wrong or loose connections are the most likely cause of the most com-
mon home entertainment problem: no sound. Use How to Connect and
Set Up Your Axcess Remote Portal to double-check your connections for
each device.
4. Cables (especially old ones) go bad more frequently than devices do.
Always suspect the cable before its device. For one thing, it’s easier to
test: simply swap the cable with one connected to a device you know is
How to Use and Enjoy Your Axcess Remote Portal

Troubleshooting
working. Then, if the device works, it was the cable. You can generally pur-
chase new cables at most home electronics stores, or via the Internet.
5. User error is more likely than device failure.
You probably don’t want to hear this, but it’s true. Use this manual to go over
the steps to operate Axcess. Refer to the manuals for the other devices in your
entertainment system as well.
6. Instruction manuals are your friends.
A good rule of thumb is to check the manual when something doesn’t work
as you expected. If you read the manual before calling the store or taking
Axcess back, you may find the solution to your problem much more quickly.
The rest of this chapter presents some common problems, grouped by type, and
the steps you can take to resolve them.
How Do I Contact Kenwood?

•
Check that you connected the speakers properly. For more information about
connecting speakers, see “How Do I Connect Axcess to Speakers?” on page 3

Make sure that the wires you’re using to connect the speakers work, and that
you’ve connected the negative and positive wires to the correct speaker
spring clip (red to red, black to black).
The Volume Suddenly Decreases
Check the impedance of your speakers. If it is less than 8 ohms, Axcess may
automatically reduce its volume to avoid overheating. Do one of the following:
•
•
Turn the volume down.
Wait while Axcess automatically reduces its power output until it cools down.

I Can’t Control Internet Radio
Verify how you connected Entré and Axcess to the Internet. Axcess must be
connected via an HPNA/Ethernet bridge in order for you to listen to Internet
Radio on Axcess. For more information, see “How Do I Connect Axcess to
Entré and the Internet?” on page 2 of How to Connect and Set Up Your Axcess
Remote Portal.
Axcess Doesn’t Work
If you have just powered up Axcess and the following screen appears:
Do not press any buttons or interrupt power to Axcess until the configuration
process finishes.
If you did press any buttons or interrupt power, Axcess is
u
nusable because it has no valid Read-Only Memory (ROM).
Return your unit to an authorized service outlet for repair.
