What to do if my Jensen Car Receiver disc does not play back?
- J
  John WestAug 19, 2025
  If your disc isn't playing back, several factors could be at play. Ensure the disc is in good condition, not warped or scratched. If it's dirty or wet, clean it gently with a soft cloth. A dirty laser pickup might also be the culprit, so try cleaning it with a cleaning disc. Confirm that you're using a compatible disc and that the disc's region code matches the unit. Also, check that the disc isn't inserted upside down, and that the parental lock settings are appropriate for the disc rating.
