Hello All,
Has anyone moved the Jensen unit ? In my 2019 - 400 it is located above the bed and is physically very awkward to adjust. You cannot use the remote from the dinette. However, I will try a round convex mirror mounted on a bracket that the remote signal can bounce off. The best solution would be to relocate it: but where, and can one obtain an extended wiring harness ? Thanks.

    Have you tried using the jControl app on your smartphone instead of the supplied remote?  It uses bluetooth and worked well for me from the dinette.

    @rh5555 - The jControl app has been hit or miss for us. Sometimes it connects right up, sometimes it doesn't. 

    @RCB - You shouldn't need a mirror for as the signal from the remote is IR (infrared) and will just as easily bounce off of any hard surface that is situated in a way that can "see" the Jensen. I haven't tried working it from the dinette yet. 

    I would suggest putting in a fresh set of name brand alkaline batteries in the remote though; the ones included with nearly all electronics remotes are cheap and half-depleted right out of the box.
