Pioneer DD help please

Post by LYFGP0 »

Hi guys.

A quick one.
I've got a Pioneer Double Din (avh-P3350bBT)

I had the DD in my 6n, connected myself and all was fine, I could watch DVD's etc etc etc.
Now, I connected it in my 9n TDI, but when tryi to play DVD's it gives me this error:

Radio does not work with ignition.
That message comes up even if car is off an standing still.

There should be a wire marked handbrake. That wire should be connected to either ground or positive, I can't remember now which one.

If you look online there is a video about using a relay from any auto shop to stop the handbrake problem , did it on a G5 that we did, works perfectly

You dont need a relay, just connect it directly to ground/power (I really can't remember which one though)

Listen here,Noobie, you need at least 1000 post before you can address me or even talk to me, okay?

Apologize before I make you eat that horse....

Btw, Alain (see, he's my bra, I know him personally) bought this head unit from me.

No problem bra. :hi:

Finally got around to sorting the DD out, Deck is able to play DVD's now.

P.S, on my Pioneer DD, it's a light green cable bridged to the Ground cable.
