i have a jensen vm9311. I really don't know how to hook up the pink parking wire to play video. It says to hook up to the parking brake switch? Any help would be great

it also says to engage parking brake sequence? pressing p.brake releasing then setting again? will grounding it still work?

Needs to see an on/off/on sequence.

Take a switch, wire one wire from switch to ground, other wire to parking wire from radio harness. When you put a DVD in and it comes to the sequence screen, flick switch on/off/on and it should work.

ill try that toggle switch or push button?

Toggle.

Some Jensens are weird, though. I've done a few where the switch simply won't work unless the switch is also hooked up to the parking wire for the parking brake.

i got a toggle but its a momentary one, i need to take it back i think but ya it still doesnt work and i dont even know where the parking brake wire is?
