Permanently engage the video signal switch associated with the hand brake?
Not sure how North Americas Mazda 5 is, but here in Japan the Premacy has
a switch/button that when NOT ENGAGED it cuts off the TV/MP4 signal to
the built in navigation / TV display.
Has anyone done a how-to work around to permanently engage the video
signal switch associated with the hand brake?
In our broken Japanese & English the guys at AutoBacs said Id need to
permanent ground the signal. Theyre reluctant to do it for me, because it
technically bypassing a safety measure.
For now, I one click up the hand brake and I can watch TV / MP4s while
driving. No the hand brake is not engaged at all, I checked on the springs
at the back wheels and it does not move when my buddy clicks it up one
and back down.
Please dont worry about my safety, the average speed limit here in Okinawa
is 17.5 MPH ! (yawn)
Peace!(rei)
