damientt Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I've just fitted a DVD player to the car but there's a slight hitch. It will play DVD soundtracks but doesn't display the video. I think this might be because I didn't connect up the parking sensor wire from the unit to the handbrake wiring harness. Arse!! If I connect the wire a ground source will this solve the problem or do I need to do something else? I don't want to connect it to the handbrake, partly because I never use it.
