Happened to me as well. What I ended up doing was pulling back out the female part of the connector, putting a tiny bit of pressure on the pin (squeezing the opening up just a tiny bit), and reinserting. From this I surmised the the male pin on the back of the 930 was too small for the female portion of the connector (part in the plastic housing). Try not to get all macho squeezing the pin or you will have to replace it.

 

I didn't try, but it might be a good idea while having the pin out to actually test the fitting for connectivity.

THIS REALLY WORKED! (I'd been racking my brain for months trying to determine why my X930BT bypass didn't work.) If you're experiencing issues with the pop-up parking brake screen and you are confident that your wiring is correct,....simply pull the female connector of the mute wire from it's new place in the harness and place a small amount of pressure on the female connector with pliers or something making the hole just slightly smaller. Be gentle! Reinsert the female connector back into the harness. Plug (don't force) the harness back into the head unit it clicks, and viola! No parking brake screen. Best of all, I can output Netflix on the kids' monitors in the backseat while my wife and I enjoy peace and quiet or a little Smoothjazz in the front! Also, Motion Drive (99 cents) with Traffic is fantastic, and I don't have to pay $120 or some discounted introductory price for new, 1 year old maps!

Are you still doing knobs for the AVIC-X930BT? I'd like to purchase one in black.
