Hi i have a dvd stereo and it says connect the green and white wire to the handbrake live wire so the dvd screen only works with the handbrake on can i just use ignition live so the screen works all the time cheers

 

Anybody help with this cheers

 

just earth it and it should work. It doesn't need power just an earth - done through the handbrake so the screen works when parked. If you do wire up another way to the handbrake and the feds catch you with a screen on when driving it's a big hit for points and a fine as i do believe they class it as 'driving without due care and attention!'

 

Ok thanks i wont be using it for dvds its a pioneers unit with app mode so i can run the satnav app i have cheers

 

Satnav shouldn't be problem even if it's wired up correctly. It's there to guide you after all.
Try it wired up correctly (it's easy to connect the wire to the handbrake plug), the satnav should work, it'll just stop DVD's playing when your on the move.
I've been sat waiting on my son at his school and had a sheriff check the handbrake out... as soon as it's dropped the screen goes blank with a legal warning. So i was ok but i do know loads of guys who don't wire them in like that.

 

as above, sat nav will work with the handbrake control wired up properly

 

Got it working cheers
