Connecting TCL TV to Jensen sound system
Finally figured out how to scan local antenna tv stations and cable (rv park) but can't figure out how to play my tv sound through the Jensen sound system. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

I have a '20 2500RL, so not sure its the same as yours. The TV outputs are not connected to the Jensen - you can play a DVD in the Jenson and it will show video on the tv and audio will be on the stereo (and tv). I think you might be able to connect the outputs from the TV to the Jensen - I haven't checked if it has aux inputs, but for my use it didn't seem worthwhile.

As suggested, you can connect the analog audio out (with an adapter) from the TV to the auxiliary input on the Jensen unit. Check your Jensen manual to make sure it has the inputs before you get an adapter and cord, but ours has it. You'll then need to select the auxiliary input when watching TV and DVD when playing DVDs.

Yeah, weird tale. I hooked my aux out on the TCL to the aux in on the Jensen... Nothing. I plug headphones into the TCL and hear the tv on headphones. Plugged my iPhone into the Jensen and I can hear the music play. But hearing the TV on the head unit, nope. Super odd.

My TCL has 2 small holes that headphone jacks will fit, the headphone jack and auxiliary jack. Only one is an output, the headphone jack.

So, was out in the trailer preparing for a trip and on a lark connected the TV to the front input on the Jenson and cranked up the volume. Got sound. I may regret this, but took it to 100 and that got the output in the typical range of the Jensen, meaning the Jenson has similar sound levels whether on radio, BT, or AUX. The sound quality is terrible, but the feature set is not bad. Probably need to do line out to a real amp and install some real speakers.
I also noticed they didn't put a cable hole for a bluray player or gaming console to be able to route up to the TV. Annoying.2021 Imagine 2600RB + 2022 Duramax Tahoe RST (previous 2017 MBZ GLS450 burnt to the ground, resulting in destroyed garage and house contents a total loss due to smoke damage)

I was able to hook my tv to the jensen but it was a bit of a pain and used mirror and phone/camera to find where to plug things in.
