My Pioneer AVN-5700DVD screen only came out partially this morning and after playing around with it for about 10 minutes, I was able to get it to close but now I can not get it to open. Before this morning it worked fine with no grinding noise or jamming. Any suggestions?

Well you get a resistor, 100 OHMS - 1000 OHMS or even, maybe a 12v light bulb, and connect it to either + 12 volts, or - Negative Earth, depending on how it is wired, and this will allow you to operate it...

Do a hard reset if that fails open the unit and check trace wires on the display ribbon.

Check the initial settings menu (you will probably have to reset the system to get it to reappear) and set the aux 1 to IPOD. This will let the ipod video play via the aux 1 just like it is supposed to. This solution is buried in the manual but is really hard to pull together.

on the unit, is should be a mint green wire.

as long as, you have power to new tv all you need is to run the yellow video rca plug you should get picture asap.

You cut the green brake wire leading to the brake and get a single pole switch from radio shack wire the green to the power part of the switch and get another piece of wire and ground it some where. when you want to play when driving click the switch and it will play while driving.

I'm not sure what aux input you're using - but be advised that if you've plugged your mp4 player directly into the RCAs in the back that won't work - those are outputs, not inputs.

You need to use a Pioneer CD-RB10 (or CD-RB20 if you're running a cd changer, XM tuner, or any other IP-bus component) in order to get an auxiliary input.

If you've done that - you need to go to the initial settings menu and set aux input to 'on'. Instructions are in this link, page 89.

dvd lite up only if you have a disc inside.there is a switch in the tray or a infrared sensor that maybe broken or dirty. good luck
