Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

So my canbus is 1K0-907-530 S
HW: 1K0 907 951

I am going to order the 1K0-907-530 AB module.

Viking...what else do you think it could be? I have a brand new Bosch 74ah battery and is fine when radio not connected...can only be that??

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Thanks for asking....deselecting the radio in the canbus section of vcds didn't fix it. Going to order another canbus module ( a newer version) as have read that sometimes people have suffered this too when upgrading to an rns510. Gonna have to have a good route to find the module though! Sent from ...

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

I find it hard to believe too but that's the case. Nothing is affected and the battery doesn't drain when the stereo or canbus mod aren't connected....
It's a waiting game for a few days now!

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Left the radio out with just the canbus unit in and it still drained the battery! No the unit doesn't turn on when the key is out of the ignition.... I've been into vcds and disabled radio from the canbus installation list, if this doesn't work I think I'll have to change my canbus unit..... Thanks ...

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Updated the canbus to v:13 so see if that sorts the drain?
If not I have no clue what to do next!!

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Thanks for the quick response! I have the latest firmware but I haven't changed that, it must've been installed when I bought the unit. I have scrolled down and it says vehicle version V:12....do I need to upgrade this? Haven't had chance to see if I have the battery drain yet as only just plugged i...

Like you I have 1.7.0 installed but it won't let me change the version to 1.6.0. Dab and Bluetooth update went fine.... Any clues @Roy01 Thanks in...

Re: Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Thanks for your help, I'll give it a try when I'm back at the weekend.
I have the red mfd in mine...would this have any effect on the canbus? I have the CAW-KIMUN1 unit. Also do you know what the four dip switches on the side of the unit do??
Thanks again

Kenwood Canbus Battery Drain?

Hi, I have recently fitted a dnx525dab head unit with the canbus module for full steering wheel integration. The only problem is that something seems to be causing the battery to drain. I have noticed the green led on the canbus stays lit even with no keys in the ignition. Does anyone know if there ...

Advice on possible speeding fine!

Hi, so I have allegedly been caught on the A5 near Wrexham doing 74 in my transporter work van (think the limit for my vehicle on that road was 60). The date of the offence was 28/10/15 but the prosecution letter was dated yesterday 12/11/15. I have done some research and apparently the police have ...

Re: Aftermarket replacement HU that looks / works like OEM?

I tried a £250 android one and found it cheap and nasty, not oem feel at all, I've forked out for the kenwood dnx525 and I'm seriously impressed!
If I were you I'd either leave the original or save for something by a recognisable brand!
