Jensen MP5720 CD Player - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Jensen MP5720 radio/faceplate connector is broken or missing spring
I was always afraid this might happen to me so I never removed the faceplate from the radio. This strategy worked fine for two years until two weeks ago. I didn't lock my car because of the freezing rain and somebody stole my faceplate and remote. Anyway I ordered a replacement radio from Amazon last week so I don't have rewire a new one. The replacement cost me $100. I don't really need the rest of the radio so make an offer, my email is

Where is the auxillary input jack jensen mp5720
the auxiliary input is the 2 RCA cables dongling out of the rear of the unit , you can get an adaptor to turn them into a jack , or an adapter cable for your ipod to jack into the rca inputs .
Same Prolbem as the other guy
Do you get sound when you use the radio? If so, the blue wire from the back of the radio needs to be disconnected and you need to use the blue/white wire instead.
If that doesn't work, try connecting either a test speaker or one speaker at a time. Your problem could be a short in the wiring - if the (+) wire to a speaker is touching the (-) wire, the deck will cut out all sound to keep itself from overheating. Let me know if you need more help.
No sound
It could be that the wires in the harness that go to speaker from stereo are not connecting to the leads on the stereo. If this is the case the wires to speakers are not connecting, but the wires from the power source are still good. Try taking the harness out of the back of the stereo that connects all the wires to the leads. Hopefully your wiring is labeled from the factory. If it is it might say "Left front speaker". Isolate this wire and wiggle it inside the harness back and forth. If it moves even a 1/16 of an inch it may be that the leads are not connecting. You can try jerryrigging it by shoving something in their in hopes that it will hold it in place. You may need to replace the harness.
Jensen vm0312 is on, but tray will not flip up
It sounds like there may be an issue with the mechanical components of the DVD player, specifically with the tray. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
- Check to see if the emergency eject feature is working. There should be a small hole on the front of the DVD player, and you can use a paperclip or a similarly sized object to push the button inside. This should manually eject the tray.
- Make sure that the DVD player is receiving power. Double-check all of the connections and fuses.
- Reset the DVD player by disconnecting the power for a few minutes, then reconnecting it and trying again.
- If none of the above steps work, it may be necessary to take the DVD player apart and check the mechanical components for damage or wear. However, this is not recommended unless you have experience with electronics repair.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to seek the assistance of a professional electronics repair technician.
