jensen parkin brake bypass

Just to let you guys Know do not pay anyone on ebay or any other service for this information as this is available to anyone who install's audio for a living this was on an audio forum on the net i found. This worked awsome, but it is not recommeded or legal to use your DVD player while driving it is dangerous but for off road use only.. thanks and be careful..

Don't pay for it....Just read 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.

Best of Luck!


Disclamier: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.

thanks and that code works no more tearin dash apart to make it work

Haha, that code is sweet. I just wish I would have seen it before I bought the switch and put it under the dash lol.

blah thats gay. ill stick to playing cds.

k now figure out a way to override my pioneer avic n2. lol

Don't remember the website but there is a bypass for the n2. I think you have to ground a wire then insert another wire into an empty spot on the plug and ground it and your good to go.

i wish, those things have some sort of gyro that can tell when the vehicle is moving, you can bypass it but it involves going into the deck itself, that would void my warrenty. so i don't know.
