Hi all.
I've had an aftermarket Kenwood 893S Head Unit installed for about 3 years with no issues until recently. After consistently receiving HD channels, the unit stopped picking up HD signals. Another symptom is that I have clear reception of the last station tuned when the radio powers on initially, but if I try to change the station to another pre-set, I need to cycle between another input (AUX, Sirius XM, etc.) on the HU to get any reception. Once I cycle to the alternate input and back, the new station reception is fine.
I have the latest Kenwood firmware installed (installed it about 1 year ago) and there were no issues after the install. The problem just started happening in the last few months, starting with the lack of HD signal and now this.
Has any one seen this type of issue before? At first I thought it was an antenna problem and did check the connection at both ends to ensure it was not loose or corroded, but could not find anything. Could this mean that the HU tuner has developed an issue?
Thanks,
-Tony
