ATTENTION TO ANYONE WITH A JENSEN VM9311,VM9411, VM9511TS and/or 9021TS
YOU CAN BYPASS THE PARKING BRAKE SECURITY FEATURE FOR FREE!!!! WITHOUT PAYING FOR THOSE PULSE BOXES OR ANY ADDITIONAL HARDWARE!!!!!
YES THE LITTLE BLACK BOXES WORK....BUT THEY'RE A SCAM CAUSE YOU CAN DO THIS FREE USING THE JENSEN FACTORY OVERRIDE CODE
So if that isn't clear enough, let me further explain. The code is a permanent way of disabling the brake override on the jensen vm series multimedia head- 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.
I tried to make this as clear as possible. If you have questions, private message me or post here.
Best of Luck!
By the way, this is for informational purposes only and I will not be responsible for anything bad/stupid/ignorant you do with your Jensen unit. |

Can you tell me if you lose power to the unit... disconnect battery, or battery goes past point of recovery (under a volt) If you have to redo the steps again... And you mentioned hooking up the pink wire to a tractor battery... What did you do with the wire afterwards... did you cut it, ground it, or hook it up to the brake like it's supposed to be hooked up... And if it's already installed and you have to redo the code, can you just initiate the sequence in park and then re-enter the code? Thanks in advance! |

Hi roger,
1) I think that if the battery dies or gets disconnected, you MAY have to redo the code, i'm not sure
2) After I hooked up the pink wire temporarily to the mower battery, I just taped it with electrical tape and have it free hanging behind the dash with no purpose. You could hook it up to the parking brake even though the brake override is engaged which answers your third question:
3) If ever you have to redo the code, all you have to do is engage the parking brake sequence and do the code, that's it that's all |

This will also work with the VM9311TS but the way I did it was a little different
I could not get the parking brake thing to work so i had to do it blind which like feta said is a bee-otch
I also did all the commands on the remote. I did not at any point touch the deck
so here is my step by step
Start playing DVD and look at the pretty blue screen
Pick up remote
hit STOP twice
punch in 1,2,6, and 4
hit DOWN 1 time not 2
hit PLAY/ENTER
**at this point the display became visible and i could now see the menu which made it much easier.
hit DOWN one more time to change macrovision
hit PLAY/ENTER
hit SYS SETUP twice to save and exit menu
VOILA!! I can now watch whatever my wife wants to watch. |

I love you Psychedelic_feta....I was about to buy the 9511 from sonic elctronix then I saw about this overide horseshIIt, and almost changed my mind til I saw your information...i just hope they don't get wise about your little trick and change the firmware on these models! |

Hi Matt
Thanks
I doubt they will change the firmware because they implement it to comply with different regulations around the world. I bought my unit from california, where its illegal to watch video, thus the unit will come factory programmed to override the video while driving. But say you were here, where I am, and bought it here, it likely won't come with the brake override.
My goal is to try and find more codes...too bad i've come up dry. I won't say where I got this one, but suffice it to say I didn't pay someone for it : ) |

Every time I insert a DVD it starts playing and it shows the blue screen. I press stop twice then try to enter the code and it goes back to the DVD menu not the hidden menu. What am I doing wrong? |

i just got a jensen vm9511ts and installed it myself. the only problem I have is after I insert any DVD, it attempts to load the disc and then tells me "bad disc" I don't know if this is because I did not hook up the pink parking brake wire or if maybe there is something wrong with the dvd player. Has anyone else had this problem? |

I think you're problem hs nothing to do with the dvd player, the disc youre attempting to load is proably not burned properly, i got the abd disc error before, but that was becasue the disc was scratched or not burned slow enough. |

Travis, sorry I can't help with your problem but the reception on the tv tuner sucks! That was one of the features I bought the unit for and it's useless. And a friend of mine has the same unit (VM9021TS) and he bought a replacement antenna that screws on the alternate antenna port on the media module with the coax cable and it still sucks. By the way he has a amplified antenna which takes 12 volts to pull in a stronger signal so they say. |

Maybe I need to reword my question better..I have a Jensen 9511 I didn't mean anything about the tv reception. I did the brake override code for dvd picture, and the DVD works perfect. But the brake override code does not work for the TV picture or the ipod video picture. I can hear the audio but I keep getting that blue screen, and cant see the picture. But I can hear the audio just fine, so i know its working.
Is there any codes for the TV & ipod video picture. I assume its the same deal with the TV as it was with the DVD picture before I put the code in. Any help would great. |

Travis,
I think you're problem is you forgot to plug something in
On my 9511 the tags on the wires were mislabelled it seems, you have to stick together the media module video output into the yellow CVBS plug on the head unit. That's why you're only getting sound and no video, you didn't hook up the video wire.
I think... |

There is one rca that you don't have hooked up.. one wire out of the cd/dvd player labeled video in or something like that (yellow female RCA) and another Yellow RCA Male (labeled CVBS) out of the brain. hook em up.. done.. |

with the sequence at the very top of this post, could you just hook it up the correct way and then just go through and turn of the brake override in that menu instead of doing that battery thing or any other method of giving the head unit the pulses? |

In fact I recommend that because if ever you have to redo the code, you can just pump the handbrake and do the sequence to re-disable the blue screen. |

niiiice, I got the jensen vm9311ts for x-mas. First off I put in a dvd in there, said bad disc. I then hit eject, and the disc starting spinning rapidly like it was jammed.... wtf? SO I took another cd, stuck it in there, and pressed up and down. Then the dvd finally came out and I havn't had any other problems since. I just put in a dvd until the blue screen showed up, then hit stop twice, entered the code, pressed down once, then hit play/enter and thats when the secret menu came visable. I hooked up a switch to it so I can turn off the video when I see a cop. One really serious question though, if you were to get in an accident thats not your fault, can they still blame you and prosecute you if they find out you have it bypassed?! |

I just recently purchased the JSN VM9311TS and the code worked great. Is anyone else having problems when they start to play a DVD it works fine. You adjust the brightness and contrast to your liking. Then when you switch sources or leave the car and come back, the contrast is real low again until you move it one notch in the settings again. It gets kind of annyoning when I have to go back into the picture settings everytime I use the DVD player. Anyone else have this problem or if you haven't realized it yet, try it. Any solutions would be great. |
