    if it is jensen this will work.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.

    I tried to make this as clear as possible. If you have questions, private message me or post here.

    This code DOES work.

    Best of Luck!

    i think in the new dvd players , this is a new security feature, that only allows the player to play only when the car is park, so u can't play a dvd and drive, some of the players dont work if u dont connect it , so read the manual if it needs 12 v or to be grounded , but u can bypass it, depends on what it need read the manual

    you can take that wire and make a chasis ground pretty much anywhere u want and it will play dvd's all the time. when u set ur parking brake it completes a circuit and lets ur deck know that it is in park.

    Un buen joystick hace que disfrutes mas con el juego y con los joystick comprados de sitios web seguramente los vas a hacer, había comprado un par de veces joysticks de sitios web porque son un regalo perfecto para los niños más grande pero el ultimo que he comprado ha sido para mi marido porque ha encontrado un juego que le gusta mucho, el envió ha llegado a tiempo y el joystick es una pasada, fácil de instalar y no ocupa mucho lugar, los dos estamos muy encantados con la compra.
