New member, quick DVD hack question, and a gift!
I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed to the DVD hack portion of the sticky at the top. I worked on this last night, and got everything done, but something isn't right.
I have a 2007 GS350 with Levinson and nav. I cut the purple wire and the white wire with the silver dots. I connected the harness side of the purple wire to the nav side of the white wire with silver dots. I also grounded the yellow wire.
So, the DVD's will play, and I never have to have the e-brake depressed, but if I start moving, the picture turns off and it goes to the map. If I stop, it goes right back to the movie. What did I do wrong?
Oh and btw, I installed the Toyota/Lexus iPod adaptor. Works well, a little quirky but otherwise a-okay. I heard people saying it was discontinued. It's not. Oh btw I'm a Toyota parts guy. Speaking of which, here are a couple of diagrams that may be helpful to people working on the nav. I have a full schematic of the electrical wiring diagram but it's in a weird format. I'll have to see what I can do to convert it.

And cohare, yes, I could definitely supply those, I just don't want to step on anybody's toes in terms of sponsorship or anything like that. Quite a few parts crossover though.....

Double post kinda. D'oh!
I didn't notice till yesterday, but my navi is kinda choppy and I don't get turn-by-turn directions. So I got none of the functionality of the navi with none of the functionality of the DVD player. Neat lol
Thank you for all your help!
