kruisekontrol12 Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 So I've finally finished connecting everything for my avic X910bt, and started up the car(Lexus SC300) to see if everything works, and everything does except the ipod Video doesn't show up. The audio plays for it but not the video, this is when it's in park too. However the DVD does show video and audio when in park, but not when driving above 5 or so mph. So I guess I didn't do the bypass correctly. I was a little unclear on how to ground the parking break I took a pic of how I connected the handbrake to the ground. I don't think it's the right spot. Also, I haven't done the software bypass, only the hardware. Please Help! Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rgarjr Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 The parking brake switch normally has two leads. One is grounded all the time. The other gets ground when the brake is engaged. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 If all you did was ground the P brake wire you didn't do the bypass correctly. Also what iPod cable are you using and where did you buy it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rgarjr Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Yeah I dunno what the OP is trying to do here. U need to ground the yellow and the green wire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kruisekontrol12 Posted May 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 I grounded those too, but yea I decided not to bypass the unit. So thanks for the attempts to help! HOWEVER, When I turn the car on, there is an annoying hissing frequency coming out of the speakers, it gets even worse when you push the rear climate button. Yet, when just the electronics are on, It's fine and doesn't make the hissing. Any ideas, I think I'm going to have somebody look at the car and see what it is. ONe more thing, the Screensaver..I made a custom loading screen and looks great in the preview, but when the unit is loading it makes it all tiny? Why, is anyone familiar with this problem? Thanks alot guys! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brucebanner Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 i dont think anybody decides to not do the bypass....they just fail at the attempt....its not that hard man...people were clowning on me in here for asking stupid questions before i got any of my install parts, but once i got it all, it all made sense and was easy.....did you move the mute wire to the new location too?

kruisekontrol12 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Yes I moved the mute wire's pin to the new location too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kruisekontrol12 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 So I was trying to get rid of the hissing static by changing the ground(picture #2) and I used a clip to go in between the washers and apparently the bypass works now. However the ipod video still doesn't work no matter the situation. So I guess when I'm getting some filters to address the hissing I'll buy another ipod cable and see if that is the reason the ipod video does not work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Once again, where are you buying your iPod cable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kruisekontrol12 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I purchased Absolute ABS-CDIU230V(Same as Pioneer CD-IU230V) from Sonic Electronix.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Go to Best Buy and pick up the Apple Composite AV cable and see if the problem goes away. If not return it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
