Cord for TV/ Jensen system

We just purchased a 2017 Coachmen Catalina and it has a factory Jensen DVD/ audio system. We can not figure out how to connect to the the TV to watch movies?

  • If your trailer came with a TV installed, then it should already be connected to the Jensen DVD head unit with a cable (red, white and yellow wires). When you put a DVD in the player, it will automatically switch to DVD player and connect to the TV. Using the Jensen TV remote, press the "TV" button and then the "source" button. Use the arrow buttons to select the input for the DVD player ("component/AV"). If this does not work, make sure the DVD cable is correctly connected to the right inputs of the TV. On mine, they had connected the cable to the wrong input connectors.

  • Often you have to make sure the red, yellow and white wires are connected between the TV and DVD player. Also, sometimes you have to tell the TV which input to look for.
  • I connected the front earphone jack to the audio input on the back of the TV.
  • My guess is that you'll need to remove the radio from the cabinet, on the back should be 3 jacks to connect to the TV.
