thanks ducati! Im still a little confused though sorry. I have an automatic so I hardly use the hand break unless I am parked on a steep slope. I do not wish to get any warning messages from the Navigation. So how w=ould I proceed wit this? Is it possible to not get warning messages and still have your mod work? I understand once I activate the hand brake I would have to turn the car on and off again but like I said, in my automatic it only gets used when I park on a slope so I wouldnt care if it didnt work since I wont be in the car... So could youanswer the questions now please? Thanks and sorry for the stupid questions I just wish to undersrtand this better.
The problem is that the parking brake interaction is VERY confusing and it will work without it connected to the anything and it will sometimes work if it's connected correctly and you use the parking brake or if it's grounded all the time.
If you don't ever want the warning message, just don't ground it all the time. That's what causes the warning message.
If it connected correctly, and you flash your headlights, and you then activate the parking brake, you would need to turn the car off and on again to get the flashing thing working again.
The best solution is to not connect that parking brake wire at all. If you plan to use TR7's or my circuit or just flash your headlights everytime manually... you don't want the parking brake connected to anything and possibly interfeer with the flashing.
I explain it a little more in detail on my FAQ
