How do I wire a flipout head unit so I can play DVD's with out setting the parking brake?

Answer 1

Best way is to create a switch, to toggle the line read to register as break engaged. You may connect this to the break wire line, or create a new line switch to engage the line read to allow for DVD to play... Check online forums for photos and how to's. You shoudl find what you need here. Get the parts at a local Radio Shack and Kragen...

Answer 2

Why not just fool the parking brake sensor. It's just a toggle switch. Very easy to find if it's a foot pedal. Not so easy, but still possible if it's hand brake in the console. You just need a screw driver. Get to the switch and tape it down. Only problem, the brake lights may stay on. If that's the case, all you need is a sledge hammer and 2 fifths of jack.

Answer 3

You will need to rig up a switch to the brake and or parking brake that will make the deck see 12v. The reason you want to switch them is if you get pulled over and the cop trys to nab you for it you can prove that that safty option works. You will have to do it yourself because it is eligal for any car audio shop to set it up that way for you.
