hartung14 Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 I just had my N3 installed yesterday. the switch was flipped but im not sure if they grounded the parking brake wire. I'm still able to watch a dvd while driving though. I think it's due to a switch under the dash that appears to be connected to the VSS wire. when I push it it says watching video is strictly prohibited or something like that. is this normal? I cant test the VSS becasue i dont have the nav disk but it looks like to check i'd have to have the disk and see if the VSS works without the switch on. also on an '02 f150 supercrew, where would be the normal install location of the brain?

MisFit Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 a switch on the vss would not work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Why on earth would you want a switch in the VSS wire? Just connect it properly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MisFit Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 because he thinks that its gonna trick the unit into thinking the car is not moving Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hartung14 Posted May 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 I didn't do it. the shop where i got it installed did. it turns out it's not the VSS. its a pink wire that me and another friend who works at a differnet shop mistook for the VSS. I still dont quite understand it though. its a pink wire with a button on it and when the button isn't pushed the unit is bypassed but if i push it i get the THIS IS ILLEGAL message Quote Link to post Share on other sites
