    Default Clarion MAX675VD Bypass Parking Brake

    I just installed a Clarion MAX675VD. I grounded the green parking brake wire to some bare metal in the dash and it worked a couple times but now when I try playing a DVD the screen says audio only. I tried calling Sound Domain where I bought it from, but they wont tell me how to do it. Maybe my ground is bad?

    EDIT:
    I was just reading through the manual and it says

    If "Audio Only" appears on the screen just after turning on the ACC Power of the car, release the parking brake while confirming safety, and then engage the parking brake again.
    --

    I was doing some more research and I read a few places to install a toggle switch, but how would I go about doing that if thats what I need to do?

    So just hook up the parking brake wire from the head unit and ground the other side?

    I know a few guys will probably call me an idiot for doing this...

    im not 100 percent sure of this because i don't do it. but i believe you put the switch on the ground wire ground it out then switch it on off on. and you should be golden.
