      If your Jensen Car Video System keeps blowing fuses, there are a few potential causes. One possibility is that the yellow or red wire is touching the chassis ground; inspect these wires for any pinched areas. Another cause could be speaker wires touching the chassis ground, so check them for pinches as well. Lastly, ensure you are using fuses with the correct rating.

      If your Jensen Car Video System has power but no sound, it could be due to disconnected speaker wires. Check the connections at the speakers to ensure they are properly attached. Another potential issue is speaker wires touching each other or the chassis ground. Make sure to insulate all bare speaker wires from each other and the chassis ground.
