miswiring message in my stereo.
When powering the radio, there's a stereo message "miswiring, check wiring then power on"?
Is this a good question?

I got this error after the unit had been installed for 2 years. I tried many ways to troubleshoot the problem, eventually ending up with nothing connected to the unit except for the black ground, the red power, and the yellow continous power. Still, the message persisted.
I removed the deck and looked at the back. There is a bank of wires coming from the circuit board that had visible corrosion bridging the gap between some of the wires. I scraped this corrosion off, and put everything back together and the system works.
It seems that Kenwood didn't make this marine deck to be around a humid environment. I'm wondering if there is a non-conductive coating (epoxy?) that I could coat this circuit board with to prevent reoccurance. Any ideas?

I’m getting the same message. I have unplugged everything including disconnecting the battery. I even removed the face and held the rest button. It is a single din, no amp and only two speakers. Spent hours trying different things. I’m stumped! Installed it new a a little over two years ago. Any help would be appreciated!

My Kenwood did this after 2 years I knew there was nothing wrong with the car so I took the unit apart could not see any corrosion as others have had. I removed the cd mechanism pulling out the ribbon cable reassembled without the cd part and now all working so some part of the cd player became faulty.
