How can i bypass my kvt-617dvd so that can watch videos

after disconnecting battery asking for code and i cant find remote help

Hi,

Since "...everything else is working..." indicates that there is no blown fuse or chances are nor any hardware is at fault.

When the battery was disconnected, the Kenwood KVT-617DVD may have suffered a memory failure and would require a reset.

Have you tried doing a reset? It's a small recessed button near the bottom right side of the font panel underneath the protection panel (right of the Joystick Track/Station Key & above the Eject Disc Key). Pressing the reset button should restore the Kenwood KVT-617DVD to default factory settings. Of course this will also remove any special programming that you may have such as favorite stations, etc.

You also posted "...Parking brake requirement...bypassed..." this is only to allow the display to be always ON. This is the green wire that must be grounded
You need also to check that the "Reverse" wire/trigger is also bypassed that is to set the "...camera...full time...rear view mirror and back-up monitor for the truck camper..." This is the pink wire that must be attached to the ACC of the vehicle's Ignition Switch. Alternately, it may be connected to the red wire of the Kenwood KVT-617DVD.

If the reset does not correct the problem, you may need to run the setup menu again following the user's manual. Should you need a copy, it is available on line here. Pls verify that you set R-Cam Interruption to ON & R-Cam Mirror to Reverse. This is better explained with appropriate illustrations in page 69 of the User's Manual.

Hope that this be of some help/idea. Pls post back how things turned out or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

no it dont i have one for this unti not sure if it works thought bought it off ebay with my kvt-715 but they say the hideaway wont work it so i need to find one for my deck and this one as no wire harness either

If you are trying to ground the radio it is the black wire. If you are trying to watch video while driving it is the light green wire. Just ground the light green wire and you will be set.

On bypasses you can either hook the parking brake wire straight to ground, if that does not work you can install a toggle switch between the parking brake wire and ground so you can mimic the parking brake on off.

you mean the hand brake? so you can watch dvds on the move?

Have a look at the installation guide, if the sense is - neg.
put a switch inline to earth/chassis,.. you will then be able to FOOL the system into thinking the handbrake is on.

If you have navigation it may cause problems/disable some features.

Ground parking sensor wires to the ground wire at the head unit. It works perfectly.

connect the green wire from head unit to ground perminetly

u can wire the safety wire to a ground or to a switch that grounds the wire and that will bypass it.

Ground the Green "Brake" wire to your frame. This will fool the system into thinking that your brake is engaged.
