On newer Pioneer dvd head units, you cant just ground the signal.
I have a Pioneer AVH P4350 and i tried grounding the signal and it does not work,
the older ones may work, but the new ones need a delayed signal to ground so even if you wire it correctly to the hand brake sensor, you need to put hand brake off and back on.
choices are a relay as i said before, a single pole single throw switch, or a normally closed momentary switch.
relay is easiest and neatest as you can hide it.
and if your "worried about cops" as some people have been saying to support switch idea, u can press mode and mute within 1-2 second which cuts screen and volume on newer pioneers.

Hi. I know this is an old post. But i just purchased a new pioneer AVH285BT head unit and im having the handbrake on/off issue. Is there a way to bypass it easily on these new units like grounding the handbrake wire or do i need to by a relay switch or something?

Just realized that i either need to do the above with relay switch, get a micro bypass, a toggle switch or just do what your meant to and connect to handbrake wire. If only i knew where the handbrake wire was on a vt commodore??? hmmmmm????

Hi. I just connected handbrake wire to a ground wire and that fixed the issue. Cheers
