Sounds like one of the wires is not hooked up, I forget but one wire will cause no image on screen when driving if you dont ground it off.

it doesnt show it even when in park.it shows that screen that says in order to view this dvd emergency brake has to be in but still plays through the speakers..

It will play through the speakers because that just like listening to music. Its watching that you cant do when driving. You need to ground the wire that is for the emergency brake and you shouldnt have that problem.

Although grounding that wire is technically against the law and you can be ticketed for it.

PS I don't want to be a Debbie downer, just wanted to throw that info out.

yeah and you can also add a switch to make it work whenever you want it or not

make it legal on command

Dual XDVD8181

did you hook up the reverse wire?

i know you prob dont have a camera hooked up , put im not 100% sure put you may have to have the reverse wire hooked up

other then that the only thing i can suggest is to make sure your (yellow/blue) parking wire is hooked up correctly

have you tried to do this?

There are usually two situations that start the PARKING BRAKE Sequence.

First situation is while driving:

1) Stop vehicle, put in Park, make sure PARKING BRAKE is off / released

2) Depress PARKING BRAKE for 1 sec

3) Release PARKING BRAKE for 1 sec

4) Depress PARKING BRAKE permanently

NOTE: Once above procedure 1-4 is completed, approx 3sec—video will display.

Second situation is while already parked and the PARKING BRAKE is already

depressed:

1) Keep vehicle in Park, PARKING BRAKE should be off

2) Release PARKING BRAKE for 1 sec

3) Depress PARKING BRAKE for 1 sec

4) Release PARKING BRAKE for 1 sec

5) Depress PARKING BRAKE permanently

NOTE: Once 2nd procedure is completed, approx 5 sec—video will display.

NOTE: This procedure will have to repeated if the IGN is turned off.
