KENWOOD DDX-7015 help

Alright i got my DVD player and got the filler, but before I installed it i wanted ot know how to modify it so it can play while the car is moving. It has something to do with this yellow wire but I just don't know what. Can someone please pass some info my way on how to get this to work, thanks!

I have the eclipse, but the wiring should be similar. For mine the dvd override wire was for the parking brake. Basically telling the dvd player my car was parked (not moving) because the parking brake was engaged. So...to get around this all you have to do is ground that wire, in essence telling the HU the parking brake is always engaged. I just found a grounding screw behind the dash and used that and walla! I assume this is the same for the kenwood, just make sure the function of the yellow wire. And above all this is for educational purposes only as i don't recommend ANYONE watch dvd's while operating a motor vehicle
