Need help with my in dash dvd player

[blueyamaha]

I have a jenson in dash dvd player and want to watch movies when i drive. I thought i had to hooked up right but i guess not. I hooked it to the parking brake sensor and it played movies when i drove, till one day it told me to apply the P brake. Well i looked in the book that came with the unit and i tried all that it has to offer and nothing wont play. The unit goes in my 04 dodge dakota. Wtf am i doing wrong? And i am sure i forgot to tell you something because i am pissed right now so ask any questions.

Take the Parking brake wire and hook it to the Ground..  It will always think the parking break is on   Thats the way my Eclipse In Dash is hooked up :grin_nod:

Just go to autozone and get a switch. Attach the p-brake wire from the dvd player to one end and ground the other with anoter piece of wire. The dvd player thinks the switch is the p-brake so you can just turn the switch on and off instead of using the p-brake.

That is how mine is and it works perfect   Read your manual see if there is a sequence you have to do  Mine when I start a DVD I have switch on then shut it off for 5 seconds and turn on again and it works fine

This is true. I have to turn mine on-off-on for it to work.

when we did the one in our truck we had it all hooked up and on a switch that you have to turn on, off, then on again so it works, just something to think about b4 you get frustrated haha

for a trick setup, you can get a relay box on the net that does everything for you, its about 30$ i think.  i tried to build one once but it was just too fast for my alpine.  so i spent 30$

[ThisGuyAlex]

you have to get this little box that fakes the park neutral safety swithch input.....cuz it's illegal for them to work when driving if in the driver's view

Or u can ground the Parking brake wire...    Done it to mine and a Few others I have put in
