I had a new Pioneer Avic-Z3 installed a couple of weeks ago. I've never had an Avic or any Pioneer Nav unit before, so I'm still figuring it out. Can anyone help me and tell me how to get everything to work (including all the Navigation functions and DVD player) without the parking break being on?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

It's a common mistake. I forgive you. NOT. lol

Okay, so I just received my Z2 yesterday and am preparing to install it. I added the wire to the open position on connector #2. My question is this -- I really don't care to watch movies on this thing while driving, but I don't want to have to stop in order to make navigation changes. Do I need to ground both wires to be able to use the nav while moving, or just wire #2? In other words, is grounding the brake wire only necessary to watch DVDs while moving while the other wire is only needed to enable navigation while moving?

do the 2 wire bypass...it enables you to function the nav settings and to watch movies...if you dont care about watching movies then dont, but it still comes along with the bypass.
