If you want to by-pass the parking brake wire, here's how.
Most wiring harnesses have a solid orage wire for illumination of the radio and also have an orange wire with a white stripe for dimming purposes. Most radios do not use this dimming feature. Connect the brake wire to this wire and your able to watch your movies whenever you want. All the wire is looking for is a signal. It cannot differentiate between a parking brake signal and a non-parking brake signal.

Oh, and most states have laws governing the use of video playing in plain sight of the driver. BE CAREFUL!

This unit does not have a dedicated subwoofer output.

brown is a mute wire which typically is not used anymore unles with this model other GPS features are going to be added. The green wire should be connected to your parking break. When there is a ground to this wire you will be able to use the dvd, not having this wire connected may also affect the cd not working. No code should be needed.

There is a safety wire for the DVD, Nav units, etc. (usually purple) that is supposed to be connected to your emergency brake. Simply connect it to your car's ground location with the other stereo ground wires and it will work fine at all times.

the phone mute wire is connected to a ground, disconnect this it's probably brown.

It is a security code. Contact a Kenwood dealer or Kenwood for servicing. They will fix any problem you have with the code.
