Supreem77 Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Ok, this is the thing....i keep reading two different things on this 'soldering the two wires under the sticker to bypass' theory. I read alot of "Its works' and many "dont do it, it'll screw up your navi system-you'll be pissed if you screw it up"! So which one is it? And if it does work, where in the world is the park brake ground wire?? (Not an electrical expert, especially with cars) I have an 2002 GMC Yukon...anyone have any advice HONEST advice??!! Thanks!

whtcrxghst Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 If you can't ground a wire, you should honestly hire a professional Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Supreem77 Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I didnt say anything about grounding a cable...I ASKED simply if this fix WORKS!!!!! Im seeking honest feedback. Secondly, I commented that I didnt know where the ground for the e-brake is-thats it!!! Im seeking feedback on those 2 things....If I find that its something that I cant do, then yes-i'll hire a professional. But im seeking to find out if this so called 'fix' even works.

whtcrxghst Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 You solder between the points and ground the parking brake wire. It works Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Supreem77 Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I appreciate your feedback. Now-Im curious to know if you'd be able to tell me ow to do it. I've read that the solder point is on the in-dash peice itself, and that there should be a sticker on the bottom of it, covering up two wires. You remove the sticker, see the 2 wires and solder them. That in conjuction with grounding the ebrake should enable the unit to play movies while in motion. Are these the correct sets to follow? If Not, i'd appreciate it if you could let me know, If you know the process and where I could find everything I need to locate. Thanks again! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan20021982 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Well I didnt want to mess with mine so I took a rca cable from the output and ran it in the backup camera hookup and it plays on the screen now but with a portion of the right side being the map, but I didnt trust myself to solder that its too small for me to risk it. I also use a backup camera and I installed a switch so I can toggle from it to the dvd and it works perfect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
