in dash dvd player

how do i hook up so dvd’s can play while drivin.

you have to hook up a switch to the wire that connects to your ebrake. Look that up on google or something and im sure you can find more in depth details about it.

firstnbass knows all.

i know i can do with a toggle switch and how to do it was just wondering if there was away around a toggle switch

alot of players of a hidden code that you can press in and access a menu to disable the dvd lock while driving. Its noice lol.

u should be able to just ground the wire ur supposed to hook up to the ebrake

nope it has some kind of loop in it that wont work.but through searching over google found out there is a code that u can put in that gives u extra menu that u can mess with more settings

if the ebrake gives power to the wire when it’s engaged. just power the switch wire all the time?

Alot of DVD players have a code you can enter to get to the service options. Most of the time there is an option in there to disable the parking brake switch. My Jensen also had an option to remove DVD region restrictions.

All of the newer DVD players I’ve seen have wised up past simply grounding the ebrake wire. You have to do an on/off/on sequence to bypass it… which is easy with a switch but not as easy as just hard-wiring it.

i got a jensen but no remote

Borrow someone else’s Jensen remote. I did all of my cousin’s using my remote. The settings remain permanent so you only need to do it once.

decent thanx i think i know someone with a jensen

this doesn’t work on all jensen’s. if you have a uv8 or uv7i… sorry, you need a switch and it’s a sequence of off and on that will make the bypass work out for you. there may be a couple of other ones that this code doesn’t work on, but I’m not sure right off the top of my head. it’s been a while since i had to deal with jensen

thats pretty cool that you can punch in a code and it will work on some of them.

mine came already hooked up so I can view dvds while I drive

ebay iteams ftw!! :slight_smile:
