Bypass on Pioneer dvd receiver makes dash light stay on?
I recently put a Pioneer AVH P3300bt unit in my car and of course I wanted to bypass it so that I could use the bluetooth dial function even when I'm driving. So I bought this one off ebay instead of making my own or anything.

Installed it last night and it works great only problem is that now whenever I drive my BRAKE light in the gauges is only all the time. Is there anyway around this not only is it annoying but I also won't know if there is a problem with my brakes or E-brake.

^^ thats the one i got but im sure its close to the same thing.

those were the instruction for mine.
What i did exactly was for the ground wire that came from the head unit i got the bypass ground wire and tied it around the little loop and grounded that to one of the screws on the top right of the mount for the head unit. Then for the blue wire i did what it says on the instructions, just spliced/put them together. And for the parking break wire i spliced open a little slit on the wire that came from the head unit, i think it was green, and just tied and taped the wire from the bypass on there and my bypass works pretty good. I do have to admit that in the process of doing this i had no idea what i was doing haha

It sounds like it could be wired wrong. Check it against this video, which also works for your P3300:

Ok so the wire from the head unit that was supposed to be grounded (black) looked like this -----C and the little "C" part was already open ready for me to ground it on some screw or whatever. All i did was take the black wire from the bypass interface, wrap it around a couple times, then i grounded it to the top right screw thing where the brace that holds the head unit goes. I didn't solder it or anything so it might not be too reliable but its been holding for a month or so so im fine haha
For the parking brake wire that is SUPPOSED to go from the head unit to the green parking brake wire from your parking brake, the end is just floating around in the back somewhere and all i did was T-tap into it with the green wire from the bypass interface then i taped around it. I didn't even touch the green wire from my actual parking brake.
And for the blue wire i just spliced it together and taped it like it said on the instructions
I hope thats clearer! I'm not too good with explanations but just let me know if its not clear yet and ill try to help ya out
