3 easy ways to bypass your parking brake

[@Jeckopotamus]

I’ve been looking into figuring out how to fix the Bluetooth in my car for over a year.. I watched 3 minutes of this video and fixed the problem in under 5. Thank you!

[@Nessal83]

What I learned most from this video is that you can power your headunit with a Milwaukee M12 battery.

[@Bankallday]

As long as its 12 volts which that battery is

[@endofd-d7c]

How do U connect the power because all the wires are in a plug not wire is on show

[@tanweersharafuddin1919]

I had exactly the same problem. I simply got the parking brake wire and got electric tape stuck on to any metal surface on the rear of the unit and it plays the video. It just needs a magnetic surge . And thanks to you , it worked. THANK YOU VERY MUCH BRO

[@sirtoneyd3138]

Have the exact same pioneer and just completed this job like 10 minutes ago thanks to this video. Pull out the ash tray and there's my (wire lead) toggle ready for video playback. Thanks

i know this is an older video but i watched it and ordered your bypass, works Awesome! Thank you so much

[@miztrusa]

I bought a Tundra 8 years ago and wondered what that Lil (hidden) switch was below my Avic-8000NEX and now I know. TY

[@ToriGeez]

so glad I found your videos. I had a radio installed by a friend of a friend in 2016 and never bothered to figure out why I could never access my Bluetooth settings (it's always greyed out). This year, I finally got to the point where I have the max number of devices stored, and I needed to delete one, but I can't because I can't get access the settings. After some research, I know it's because a wire isn't grounded, and now I know what to do to fix the problem. Thank you!

[@jptheinstallguy]

aaaaaaayyye another problem solved im happy my vids help some many people thanks for watching

[@kennethstevens5711]

Where does the yellow wire go for the Alpine? I just ordered it because I have the iLX-507 radio which I’m about to install

[@lindathompson9250]

Thanks!

[@hstafford078]

Great video and very helpful. All I wanted to do is be able to adjust my settings without having to pull over (eq, etc.). Also, my parking brake signal was finicky, leaving me unable to access my settings even while parked. You showing how to install the switch and bypass gave me a couple of options to try. Thank you.

This is by far the best and most informative video I've ever watched in line with this type of search. To the point, incredibly easy to understand and u clearly show how yo do it. Also want to add that was pretty fkn cool how u used the Milwaukee battery. Had no idea. I will be subscribing to say the least. Thank you for ur time and great video

Mr JP, THANK YOU! I just used your video to install a ground switch for my new Pioneer AVH-120BT. AWESOME!

[@jptheinstallguy]

So glad this helped

[@tomgray7215]

Does the AVH120 BT have decent power. I bought one haven't installed it yet. Did you have to use a grounding switch?? Or did it work just simply by grounding it out

[@isaias131982]

Mine keep blowing the fuse I don’t know that’s going on there 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@cdshawn]

I was going through Pioneer problems too I just got one used off Marketplace but I got a wire harness with the light green straight from Amazon because this one didn't have the light green

[@l.m.g8799]

This video helped a lot I wired the ebrake with my ground in the harness but only Bluetooth works and it can play cds for music but if I want to watch a movie or use the WebLink it doesn’t work and the switch method helped me now I can use everything and it leave it on all the time and turn it off here and there

[@AKMR.187]

J.P. thanks brother.... I used your method number two with the toggle switch and it worked very well thanks brother I really appreciate it keep doing your thing... I'ma keep watching 💯👌🏾🤙🏾✌🏾

How you're doing JP. Awesome video 👍. Now I got an Alpine flip-out units ( CVA-1005 & an IVA-D300 ) & both of them require the parking brake to be installed to watch DVDS, but I want to movies without having to park my car , but at the same time my focus will be on the road as well which is a top priority. I didn't know until now how to bypass it. Can't wait to see more of your videos, good job 👍👍👍👍👍

[@ufo-ghost963]

Thanks for video, I should have spent more on the higher model pioneers. Jailbreaking the video lock on the DMH-2660nex is a serious headache. My patriot had a broken pioneer, so got the 2660 pioneer last night, used the same wiring already adapted, so appears former owner didn't hook up that green bypass to a ground, or any other bypass method. I'll have to pull new one back out and try to do this. :)

[@morgenmiller9159]

JUST what I was looking for. Thank you!

Great video. However I have an odd situation. I just bought a Pyle PLTS78DUB has the pop out screen with DVD player. I automatically grounded the brake wire and it allows DVD to play while driving BUT it doesn’t allow me to access other functions such as setting the time. Any idea what to do here? Maybe I’ll try your #2 or #3 method otherwise maybe it’s a bad deck.

Thanks for video JP! Have a question - installing the bi-pass on an Alpine iLX-407. The harness has a yellow blue wire which connects to the green wire for parking brake. The additional yellow wire - does that connect to the solid yellow wire off the harness? Thank you!

[@grego805]

Hey , I used one of the blank switch holders for a feature my model doesn’t have. So unless your car has every option , go and pay 4 bucks for a toggle that fits perfectly in a recess made for such a purpose. My install looks stock and instead of wiring to parking brake I run to a switch installed in the dash using existing hole . Just take the blank out and snap the new switch in it’s place. Or just wire it to your p brake ! Don’t watch dvds unless you parked and ready to make out lol!

[@fasjackson3588]

Awesome Video! Great job! I have a question. If I have an amp connected to my main speakers and another amp connected to my sub am I using the "pre-outs" because my JVC deck says I won't get the "beep tone" If I'm using pre-out connected and I didn't wire my stereo. My bro has amps and stuff like crazy on his deck and still gets a beep tone when touching menus and such. I WANT the beep tones and they're turned on but I don't hear anything.....any idea? TY

[@MarketingCoachKen]

I had no plans to watch to the end. I already have a switch wired up, but when I saw #3, I would never complete an installation without that relay. Ordered from link in description. I have a Pioneer unit and I don't want an ugly switch on my dash for no good reason.

Can I use your relay with a toggle switch by connecting the green with the parking break wire and the ground on the toggle to the black on the relay? If not I was going to go through the cigarette lighter for the ground with the toggle.

Do you have to bypass before you can use regular Bluetooth for music with no video? I’m bout to buy a pioneer and wanted to know before hand

[@chevyboss97]

i have somewhat of a dumb question, if the regular foot brake is already a ground when pressed cant you just wire it directly to that and since its timed and you regularly use the foot break wont that work in that way.

[@jmcnallyua]

I'm wondering if any of these three ways would work on the Jensen touch screen head unit cuz I was thinking about buying a Jensen touch screen head unit and I want to be able to bypass the emergency brake stop so the people in the passenger seat can operate it while I'm going down the road and build to watch stuff but anyway keep up the amazing KZbin videos

i like the toggle switch the best, that way i can disable it whenever i want so i don't get caught with a movie playing if i get pulled over. Some people might think it's cumbersome to have to switch it on, off, on, after you start it up, but it's no more cumbersome than playing with a light switch.

[@AndrewWuamett1776]

Thank you very much for this video. I tried the relay and it wouldn’t work. Called the mfg and they explained they no longer make the relay to bypass the brake line. It’s just primarily used to limit the sub “pop”. My parking break lead to the head unit isn’t working so I legitimately couldn’t even install the alpine head unit as mfg intended. I had to put in the switch and after so much madness installing this head unit and not being able to get anything to work.. dude I was stoked the toggle switch worked immediately. I really thank you for this video. I would’ve been stuck with this alpine head unit and never been able to actually use it. 🤙🏼
