Can Universal Remote be Programmed to Jensen RV Stereo
Question:
I am trying to find the codes used by the remote with this device in order to use a universal remote control to control several devices. Can you help me get the codes to program a remote to the Jensen?

Jensen doesn't make it easy to program a universal remote to their stereos and TVs. Here's their official response on the matter.
"Universal" remote controls are pre-programmed from the remote manufacturer. These remote manufacturers need to gather the IR coding information from the electronics manufacturer and include that information in their database.
Most "universal" remote controls will not be compatible with our TVs/stereos. The reason is that the "universal" remote manufacturers typically do not include products made specifically for mobile applications as their primary use is for home products. As our TVs are one of the few brands of TVs designed specifically for mobile use (RVs, Vans, Boats, Buses, etc.), our IR coding is most often not included when they create their IR coding database for their "universal" remote.
One solution is to use a "learning" remote control. This will allow you to "teach" the remote any IR coding from any IR remote capable product, regardless of whether the product was included in the remote manufacturer's IR database. Another solution is to purchase the specific remote needed through the original equipment manufacturer.
