Parking brake bypass

• Yes it does. The emergency brake wire is a safety feature. If you don't have it hooked up it won't even display anything. If you do have it hooked up then you have to have the emergency brake engaged to be able to view DVD'S. The manufacturer does this so people can't just unhook the brake wire and watch DVD'S while driving

this is on a website link let me try to find it its a wire buddie had same issuue

The reason why is because the receiver is not registering that you have a constant ground connected to the parking brake. Depending on the model, you should be able to hook the wire that tells you parking brake up to the ground wire of the receiver. If that doesn't work, then you are going to need to use a switch that is hooked up directly to ground. Based on the last Pyle receiver I saw, you should be able to do the parking brake wire to ground and be fine.

I ran across of alot of lcd head units that requiers the parking brake wire connected so it will show the video, (usually just audio if parking brake not on). But if you connect that wire to a proper ground (screen always on) or a grounded switch so you can control it maually (turn it on or off when you choose)

You can run the brown wire to a ground and that should work for you. Would you happen to know the importance of the pink wire?

This wire needs to be connected to the positive wire on the E-Break. Or if you would like to not heed the warning on the box about driving with video on you can run it to a positive accessory wire in the ignition fuse box or the (Yellow) accessory wire that is behind your radio.

Ground the handbrake wire to the outerpart of the "line out" connector if it's not in use, works a treat

I know my PLTS75 when we hooked it up. you connect the brake wire to the negative pole to bypass that

Hi,

based on safety concerns. the DVD won't work if brakes are not engaged. The sensor for the enabled/activated brakes is the yellow/blue wire.

To bypass this model would mean grounding the brake wire would allow DVD playback. There is a little trick to make it work. It should start first as +12 before it should be grounded before the DVD will play hence a DPST switch would be required, not only grounding.

This is better explained here. Should you be in need of the manual, it is available here.

Additionally and a friendly reminder, in some regions, it is not allowed to view a DVD movie while vehicle is in motion.

Hope this be of help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FIXYA.
