Our DVD video goes from Jensen to TV on the wire with yellow RCA plug. HDMI would allow connecting a laptop to TV (change source to HDMI on TV menu). Our pod did not have HDMI cable.]]> Sun, 24 Jul 2016 22:19:49 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7302&PID=79444#79444 Jensen tv and stereo in a 179 : Used our rpod 182 for the first... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7302&PID=79436#79436 Author: Beachguysc

Used our rpod 182 for the first time this weekend. Had a great time. We didn't really watch much tv, but when we did, you couldn't hear it over the AC through tv speaker. There were 2 cords in the drawer that came with the trailer. one a 3 prong rca male on both ends and the other a female red and white with a audio plug that fits the front of the Jensen accessory jack. So I strung cords together, plugged the male red/white into the female red/red white. One end in the tv red white(with yellow dangling free) and then the small audio plug into the Jensen. Turned off the tv speaker and now I have some semblance of stereo for the tv. Now just to upgrade those little white 6 inch speaker in the ceiling. They are really cheap. The garage speakers are actually pretty good. In fact, with the garage closed. It sort of acts like a bass box for the interior

----Any suggestions for better interior speakers without having to cut anything? Just a simple switch out and maybe a few new screw holes is about all I care to do. I don't care if it hangs down a little lower, because the lights and the AC already do that anyway.

--also, there is an hdmi cable dangling down behind the tv. Is that for the dvd part of the Jensen?

I found the problem to my DVDs video problem. They run RCA cables from the DVDs player to the connector plate on the wall next to the tv. Then they have another set of RCA cables running from the front of the connector plate to the TV. Well, the yellow end on the cable connected to the back of the plate is bad from hanging at 90%. Why don't they just run one cable from the dvd to the TV. They have set up to many connections. I really have a lemon on my hands. Frig out from the first day. We are on a 46 day trip and no frig. Main power board is out. Plus a long list of bad workmanship. Could be a law suit in my future after we return to Tampa. Moral and Morgan are for the People.

We have a new 2015 RP 171. We have been trying to watch a DVD. It was working fine, I had the source set to AV. Then all of a sudden I am getting a " no signal" message on the TV screen. DVD is playing because I can hear the sound through the speakers, but nothing on TV. I have unplugged and reset everything but I get the no signal message. No sound or video from tv while trying to play a dvd.

Thanks for asking the question. I had the same problem last fall and could not find the answer! When I get the pod out of winter storage I will have to give the "AV" a try. ]]> Wed, 03 Feb 2016 17:43:19 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7302&PID=69579#69579 Jensen tv and stereo in a 179 : Thanks works just fine now. http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7302&PID=68718#68718 Author: Capt Kidd

I found that you have to change the input on the tv to AV I think it was. Push the DVD button and mine worked fine. I was actually hearing it coming through the Stereo before it ever showed up on TV. So I imagine you could use either as long as the tv was getting enough volume from the stereo. As I have only used it once dont hold anything against me.......lol. Also I believe you have to push play on the buttons on the stereo.

Go to the menu on the TV and select source. You should have an option to choose video as your source. When done go back to the menu and select TV. Not sure about volume. Go to menu and select audio. It might be set too low on your set. Good luck.

I think the shortest answer is that the Jensen Stereo / TV system is a piece of junk.

Our DVD player worked for about 6 months or 6 DVD's.

I think FR put the cheapest unit in they could source.

Good luck!

Hi all need some help. We have a 2016 179 love it but having problems with the tv, stereo. When we try and watch a dvd, we can hear it but no picture. Also just watching TV can't hear the sound through the stereo, the sound is very low and only comes from the tv. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks from the Lazy Goose.
