I just thought I would post this up and see if anyone else has had this similar problem...
The first part of the problem was; I was driving back to work from lunch listening to my radio when all of a sudden I tried to change the song on my ipod (which is controlled by the touchscreen on the Kenwood DNX 7100) and it was playing a completely different song than what I picked and what was listed on the display. I then tried to change the song again and it wouldn't switch. I thought the ipod must have been frozen so I unplugged it from the radio. It wasn't frozen so I plugged it back into the radio and the same song was playing from where it left off. So I unplug the ipod again and powered it down then plugged it back in and the song starts up again where it left off! I then started to think that maybe it was a song on the cd I had in and the radio decided to play the cd without showing it on the screen and here is where the second problem started. I take the cd out, wasn't what was playing, so I put the cd back in and the tilted screen will not go back up. So I push the eject button and it ejects the cd again and then I try putting it back in again and it still won't go back up. By now I am getting a little pissed off and worried. I am at a stop light, turn the car off then back on and it still doesn't go back up. I finally get back to work and the damn thing is still in tilt mode and I try helping push it up very carefully and still doesn't want to move on its own. Finally I need to be back at work so I just left it and started doing research on the internet and here is what I found:

I haven't had a chance to try what people have suggested since I am still at work, but I am at ease that I am not the only person that has had this problem. I will let you all know how it goes when I get home.

Please let me know if anyone else has experienced this and whether or not you were able to fix it.

THANKS!

 

i had the problem when i first got it installed. hit the reset button. while its on... it should go back to normal.

 

This may be a silly question, but where is the reset button located? I am not at my radio right now so I can't picture where it is at.

 

look carefully. its in the front.... at the bottom where the buttons are.

 

Ok thank you...even though I don't know if you are making fun of me (like I said I am not in front of my radio right now) or if you are saying it is not easily spotted

 

lol no im not making fun of you hahaha its not noticeable like the old school headunits where its a read button.... its soo blended in with the unit you can't really tell its there.

 

If you keep having problems can I have it =)

 

Have or buy???...

 

So I came out after work and the screen corrected itself. We are back in business Sorry Ricky no Kenwood giveaways today
