Recommended Replacement Stereo for Jensen AWM970

Question

Question:

Our Jensen AWM970 broke down and would not reject the CD. Can you recommend a unit that would replace the Jensen AWM970. Have the hole that the old one came out of with all the wiring. 91/4inch Wide, 61/8 High and 8inch deep. Thank you for any assistance.

For your replacement stereo, I recommend the Jensen Stereo -AM/FM - CD/DVD - USB - Bluetooth # JWM60A. It as rough opening dimensions of 9 inches by 6 inches by 5-1/2 inches and is the best option for a replacement in my opinion. It will be a nice upgrade.

Another option is the Drive RV Stereo with Remote # 324-000004. It has rough opening with the dimensions of 9-3/8 inches wide by 6-1/8 inches tall by 5-1/2 inches deep with the overall unit measurements of 10-1/4" wide x 7" tall x 6-3/4" deep.

@JefferyH This unit is a good replacement option for your AWM970 and will be an upgrade because it has the option to connect a device via Bluetooth.

I actually wasn't able to find any info on that stereo model. Are you sure you typed the model number correctly?

Answer 1

The #AT91367 will not work with your Atwood OD-5001 water heater. Like you mentioned, the replacement boards have been discontinued, so really the only option we can offer is a new water heater. I fully realize it's not what you are wanting…

The Jensen RV Stereo - Double DIN - AUX/USB, Bluetooth, jControl - 12V Item #JWM60A is the recommended replacement for the Jensen AWM970. The wiring harness is a little different so I have a attached the wiring guide for both stereos to help you…

Answer 3

There is a trim piece that goes around the sides of the face plate of the Jensen Stereo #JWM60A that you referenced. With it removed you'd have access to the mounting hardware for the stereo. In the attached picture you can see the plates…

Answer 4

The JWM62A actually replaced the #JWM60A and we decided to keep the old part number on our site. So if you ordered a #DV1230BL you'd actually get the current updated version JWM62A.

Answer 5

If you have power running to the unit but still can't get it to power on you may have a loose or blown fuse. The fuse of the Jensen RV Stereo - Single DIN - AUX/USB, Bluetooth, jControl - 12V #JWM70A is located on the rear of the unit by…

Yes, you certainly can use a larger tire like the #AM32131 on a 3,000 lb axle. While we do not disagree with what the forest river rep told you regarding the "rotational mass aspect", this is generally a non-issue when upgrading…

The Jensen AWM965 and the new Jensen part #JWM60A have the same cut out size of 9" wide x 6" tall x 5-1/2" deep. The Jensen JWM60A is actually a replacement for the older Jensen AWM965 stereo so this will work well for you.…

The Jensen Stereo -AM/FM - CD/DVD - USB - Bluetooth #JWM60A has locations on the two sides that are removable to access the mounting holes. I went out to our warehouse to confirm this. They do pry off without breaking if you are patient and take it…

Answer 9

The Jensen RV Stereo part #JWM60A would be an excellent replacement option for the Jensen RV Stereo part AWM910. The cutout size needed as well as the mounting hole locations are virtually identical between the two units so this part of the process…

Answer 10

It is interesting that the Jensen Stereo part #JWM60A does not have a constant 12 volt power circuit on it's wiring connector so that means you'd only connect the switched 12 volt circuit you have now to the switch circuit in the 15 position…

We've checked with Jensen in the past and for your AWM970 RV stereo the simplest replacement solution is the Jensen part #JWM60A that you referenced.

Answer 12

The Jensen Stereo -AM/FM - CD/DVD - USB - Bluetooth #JWM60A does have auxiliary inputs so that you could run the audio of a TV to it. On the front of the stereo is a standard 3.5 mm aux input that you could use an RCA to 3.5 mm adapter to easily run…
