I have installed an android head unit and now I am installing a DVB-T to watch TV.

I am fully aware that it's illegal for the driver to watch TV when driving, however, that doesn't stop the wife from watching it.

Regardless, this is the unit (the first one)
Das - Diversity Autoscan System

The yellow wire goes to power

Red to Accessories

Green to reverse if using a reverse camera which I am not

A blue wire for 12v power out, most likely to connect to something else if you want?

Black to Ground

Orange to brake.

Correct me if I am wrong, I think most is self explanatory and I think I only need to connect the following:

Power
Acc
Ground

The brake wire is the problem, if I connect it to the brake circuit she can't watch TV when we are driving.

I had read somewhere (can't find it now) that the brake wire can be disabled by grounding it??

Besides the obvious, can anyone please tell me what to do with the brake wire?

 

All the experts must be on holiday as I know there are members on here who have the knowledge.

 

I haven't done anything like that yet, but if I were to approach the problem, I'd measure voltage off the blue wire (to ground) with the brake off...then measure voltage to ground while brake on. Knowing nothing about these kind of systems, I'm guessing they are looking for a +12v or a grounded signal. While doing some research to put a nav system in my Impreza, I remember there was a jumper to disable in motion...but can't remember what they were jumpering to.

Edit, let us know how it works out. would love to see how it turns out.

 

Ground it.

That's all applying the hand brake does to the brake circuit.

 

I thought as much, thanks for taking the time to reply.
