How To Use Jensen Stereo To Play Videos And Sound On Rv Speakers

Question:

Can I use this stereo to play videos on my tv? The current stereo in my RV is right to the left of the opening for the tv. I would like to be able to use the speakers all through the rv for the sound on the tv. And is there any way to send the sound from the tv through this stereo for the volume on the tv while watching tv? Hope this makes sense?

The simplest way to accomplish getting the speakers all through the rv for the sound on the tv is to use the Jensen Stereo Audio/Composite Video Cable # JCAV50. There should be a white and red audio input on the back of your tv, plug them in.

On the rear of the Jensen Stereo Bluetooth # JWM60A plug in the other end of the red and white cables. Change the input option on the Jensen Stereo to AUX or Auxiliary. At this point any sound that plays through your TV should play through the speakers through your RV. If you are hooking up a cable box, VCR, game system, etc, you may have to remove the red and white cables and plug them into what ever source your are using at the time to hear sound from these products.

If you are using the DVD feature on this product, plug in all three wires into the radio and into the television, put the DVD into the stereo and its should work perfectly.

There are yellow wires on each end of this product, leave it unplugged and the sound will still work. There is a 25 inch version of this product also # JCAV25 or 12 inch # JCAV12

We just purchased an RV that had Jensen awm975 in it. Need assistance getting the TV to work with the surround sound and I’d like to know how to get my iPhone8+ to play music. I have the headphone adapter that came with my phone, usually this works. I’m not sure if our auxiliary system is working. Can anyone help?

Are you able to get any sound coming out of your stereo system like from the radio? Does your TV have provisions for audio output?

@JonG from the radio, yes. It won't work thru TV not any auxiliary cords.

@Kim If you aren't able to get the TV and iPhone outputs to work with the stereo I'd double check those by testing them with something else. If they work then odds are the Jensen will need replacing. If they don't work then you'll likely need to replace those (although iPhone adapters can be sensitive and not work with everything).
