Ran into an issue when installing my new DVD player. I couldn't find a straight answer on how to identify which trigger wire to use or even how to find what to wirek it to. HERE IS THE ANSWER! How to know which wire is the trigger wire for your DVD Automotive installation.

When watching a movie, can you hear without using the headset

@pedro_diogo Год назад

I bought a car and it has a DVD Player. It’s a overhead DVD player. The dome lights work when but the dvd itself does not turn on. There’s a wall outlet on the car passenger side which I’m assuming powers the DVD player but it doesn’t I don’t know where the source of power is please help me

@willmonty47 Год назад

Pull the DVD player out of the ceiling and look for the yellow or red wire. These are going to be your hot wires. More than likely the connector that hold these wires together came undone.

@Jesseyclarke87 4 года назад

I have one brand new. It’s all hooked up and working but no sound. I tried rca worse to stereo nothing. How do I get sound thanks

@willmonty47 4 года назад

The sound settings on the DVD player are probably set to FM radio with a station selected. You would have to tune your car to that FM station so I can pick up the sound from the DVD player. You can also change the setting on the DVD player to just play sound through the built in speakers as well.

@noelcaraballo5466 5 лет назад

Could I please get the name of the dvd player you purchased. Thank you!

@willmonty47 5 лет назад

It was BOSS dvd player. The website was www.geeks.com

@irenestump3850 4 года назад

I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 has a DVD player in the back. My problem is I that I have a different radio installed in the vehicle. I have the remote control and head phones but can't seem to turn it on. What wires in the vehicle do I have to have connected in order for the DVD player to play in the back. Anyone have any ideas?

@easiebusinessservices4887 4 года назад

So you have a factory DVD player and a aftermarket head unit in the front now?

@clientelebeautestudio9121 4 года назад

Please help what was the name of the place to find the player at great cost??

@MrHermangv Год назад

Yea I think they made a harness now for aftermarket radios so you can gain access back to steering and back controllers. There’s a guy in RU-vid that’s shows how to hook it up

What size screen is that and brand and was it worth the money

@willmonty47 5 лет назад

Sorry about the late reply. It's was BOSS (sorry I said NAXA but it's a BOSS DVD player). It's a cheaper brand but it does the job. No problems so far.

@GoodVibesOnly207 5 лет назад

Thanks for the video helped me clear one hurdle.. did you ever run into an issue where the truck would need to be started for the light to work.. my truck has to be on for the dome light to work.. It will also work with door activation while truck is started.. I appreciate it..

@willmonty47 5 лет назад

Man to be honest no. Never had that issue at all. Wish I could be or more help.

@bsmith2196 5 лет назад

Sounds like you have an ignition wire hooked up where a constant should be

@GoodVibesOnly207 5 лет назад

I just sent it back.. hopefully the new one works properly.. Definitely hooked up properly

@muhammadsharif6482 5 лет назад

My monitor get line when start.. If off engine it will ok..any solution.. Please comment

@willmonty47 5 лет назад

If it is working opposite then just use the other trigger wire. There are two. One has a + the other has a - . use the opposite of the one your using now.

@muhammadsharif6482 5 лет назад

You mean negative black to red wire?, and positve to black like that?

Nice video I’m a little late but would I be able to connect an acc wire from the dome light ? Or would I have to run it to an acc wire some where in the car?

@Daniel3452001 6 лет назад

quick question Will. did you have to mount into the rear dome light cross beam and the center cross beam for mount your dvd player? i have a 3 gen crewmax with a 9inch pyle roof mount and would like to move it closer to the dash so the kids are not straining their necks. let me know if you can...thanks again. Dan

@willmonty47 6 лет назад

Daniel3452001 yeah I used the cross beams with metal tapping screws. You should be able to move it forward.
