    Default Assistance with Kenwood 7120

    Hey guys the drop in weather killed my battery in the vette. we jumped it to move it before placing the battery on a charger. Now my Kenwood unit will not boot. The screen lights up (black but can tell is on) and the controls light up but nothing else. No nav, no backup camera, ect. Just seems like a software or HD issue? Any help or ideas. Thanks!

    I think we are here to achieve something. It's one life.
    Whatever you do, keep yourself and people around you happy.
    Even if you can't help them, don't harm them. I think that is pretty much life. Keep going, don't stand.
    You got nothing to lose. Keep going, it's life.

    KenwoodForums.com • Index page will likely have your answer.

    I'm pretty sure that there is a little reset button somewhere on the unit that can be pushed with a paper clip.
