Perfect replacement unit for Jensen JWM22 Stereo

Ablezerosix

Greetings. I wanted to let everyone know the Boss BV6860BH head unit is a direct perfect replacement for the Jensen JWM22, including the screw holes. The LCD went bad on my Jensen stereo in my 2021 Tab320, probably due to prolonged minus 30 temps, and I was happy when I went to install this $50 Boss unit and it popped right in and perfectly aligned. Seems to be a nicer unit than the Jensen.

There are as many complaints about the Jensen head units then there are about any other part of the trailer. Replacing the unit is the solution.

So, this one popped right in? Have you tried the HDMI passthrough there on the front of the unit?

Was the wiring connector a match or did you have to splice it?

I had to splice the wires.

I have not tried the HDMI passthrough yet.

We never use the head unit.

When we use the TV I just connect to it directly via a separate HDMI cable. Usually connected to an iPhone to watch streaming, or to our mini video game consoles…

But I have been thinking about ripping out the head unit, and replacing it with a little cubby that has a USBC power plug so we can plug in a phone while watching TV.

I would probably also add something like this hooked to the speakers just in case we wanted to use them:
