hi all,

Just swapped out a pioneer headunit for an atoto and now for some odd reason I get a brake warning on the dash and it makes that annoying sound after around 10-15mins of driving.

Nothing seems wrong with the brakes and I've only touched the wires for the head unit so what is going on??

Not the hand brake warning is it? Is the lever up a tiny bit?

It's the symbol that shows up when the handrabke is up but says brake on the display. It was going nuts earlier. I've disconnected the wire from the head unit to the handbrake for now to see if it persists.

DVD unit is it? Only plays if the handbrake is on? Did you connect it to right wire on the handbrake?

It doesn't have a disk drive but I can play videos on it, don't watch anything on it though. I believe so. Just used the same wire from the previous head unit.
