You have to connect that wire to your emergency brake wire which is black and is mostly located on driver side floor board on the left usually. sometimes look in corner down there or search where it is on google.

I need help my new BOSS BV9560B display Warinig please stop watch video player when I'm play DVD
It's because the pink wire (brake system) is not connected to anything. It is a safety feature to make sure that you are not watching the DVD while driving. I just installed my BV9990 today and had the same issue (before taking care of that pink wire).

Video does not show when playing a dvd
there was a parking brake wire. i think its light blue or something. its going to be under your dash. or if you didnt connect it to anything its just laying there. simple solution. just ground out the wire. find the wire cut it and find the nearest bolt. unscrew the bolt a little bit and shove the wire underneath. problem solved. :)

It wont show the image on the screen.
The only way that would happen is if your pink wire is still somehow connected to the e-brake. You need to completely remove this wire from anything and only connect it to ground.

Can't play dvd
most dvd players for cars have a wire that is connects to the parking brake so you can't watch while driving. You can ground this wire, and the dvd will work. that maybe the problem.

Bypassing car dvd parking brake
Usually the wire should be grounded. Connect the wire to a ground point via a switch (is illegal to watch TV/DVD while you're driving)
