i want to watch movies while moving, i already grounded the pink wire, didnt work anybody know what to do.

i think on that model that there is a sequence that you have to go through. Like engage emergency brake, release, engage, release, then engage a final time if I remember right. If that is the case you would have to by a bypass meant for your in dash to work while you are driving. There is no real simple way to bypass that sequence.

im not even sure if they make one for jensen you can google it or you can also try using the one that works for alpine's cause they have the same sequence

Try grounding the parking brake wire to a regular ground.. because when you pull up on the parking brake that supposedly grounds the wire which allows the dvd to be used.. not positive it will work but that is what i heard to do and i am going to attempt in a week or 2 when i put my new panasonic in lol..

Good Luck!!!

It will not work on units that have a sequence to it. It will only work on units where all you have to do is to pull up the emergency brake and thats it. If it requires you to engage, disengage, engage, disengage, then engage it and let it sit there is a built in relay inside the unit that senses these triggers and will not work by just grounding it.

The code is a permanent way of disabling the brake override on the jensen units.


There are two ways of doing this:

Insert the DVD

After the disc loads and plays you will see a blue screen telling you "it is unlawful to drive with a movie blah blah blah"

1)Activate the brake sequence and disable the blue screen using the hand brake, the switch method or anything else to give the unit its three pulses to disable that freakin blue screen.

(What I did was I installed my radio entirely, then took the pink wire and touched for two seconds, removed for two seconds and then touched and held the negative pole of a mower battery laying on my passenger seat until the screen was no longer blue.)


2) Next, on the main remote press stop twice, then 1, 2, 6, 4.

You will now see a hidden menu that says:

Region Code
Brake Override (I know you're drooling by now)
Macrovision (Watch all the burned and pirated movies you want if this option is off)
Loader Version
Model Version


3) Using the right joystick on the unit, navigate to the options of your choice, click on them to toggle on, off or which region code you want.

This is what you want:

Region Code: 1
Brake Override ON
Macrovision: OFF

When your done, click SYS SETUP on the main remote TWICE to save the settings and bingo, your done!!! Hooray!!! You can now kill your whole family in the car while watching that adult movie while your driving.....


The other way of doing this is by not engaging the parking brake sequence, thus you're inputting the code blindly.

1) Insert the DVD and you'll get the blue screen.

(If you have more than one tv, the unit itself will have the blue screen but the additional tv's you have plugged in will NOT, they will show the dvd menu. Thus you will be able to see the hidden menu on the additional screens after inputting the code, but not on the main unit because of its blue screen.)

2) On the main remote, push stop twice and then 1, 2, 6, 4

3) Push the joystick on the unit SOUTH twice and then click it once.

4) Press SYS SETUP on the main remote twice to save your settings.


It may take a few tries but you'll get it. This method can be done if you don't want to bother temporarily activating the brake sequence, but if you only have the unit and no additional tv's, its #$%^&* damn hardbecause you can't see the settings your changing.


This code DOES work.
