I have alpine cva1003 i have a sound but black screen

if evrything is ok with the dvd (make sure the dvd is working fine), you need to hook up the yellow/ blue wires and yellow / black wires one for parking breack and the other for the breack chek the diagram on top of the alpine radio .

legally, you don't.

In order for the video to work you need to hook up both the parking and the foot brake leads so you would have to press in the foot brake pull the ebrake let up on the foot brake then the video should come up but if u want to watch videos all the time moving or stopped youll need to do some custom work so:

Short of making a microprocessor to do the sequence the easiest way is the two switch method. just mount two switches together and do the sequence.

Although the idea of only one switch and the foot brake hooked up correctly might work too.

The best way to go about it is to hook up the system as is should be and use a voltmeter to see what voltage changes are on the lines. Then hook up the switches accordingly.

hope that helps!!

If you hear the motor try to run but the screen will not move then the plastic slides inside are most likely cracked and warped. This will make the screen catch on the rough edges. Not sure of the part number for the assembly to replace it but this is what I just found on my unit.

Go to alpine .com and scroll to the bottom of the screen to support.Click on support then type in
cva-1003 and there you will get the manual for free.................................................!

hold down the setup button until the menu comes up. press the '6' button. press the '6' button until "expand box" is hi-lighted. press 'up/>>l' button.
worked for me. good luck.

i have the same problem can anyone help?

try going to the setup up then changing the aux-1 and aux-2 setting to pal. and make sure they are on. do this by holding down settings button. then press the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 buttons till you get the right one.

go to alpine.com and on the search type cva-1003 and then download the pdf manual

what kind of connector do you use ? SCART, RCA composite or S-video ? Looks like cable or connector problem
