how to bypass...s

can someone tell me how to bypass the ebrake block, so i can watch tv on my car? i have an indash, i dont want it for me, its just that my baby likes watching cartoons and i want her to watch it.

i had the installer leave the wire out, and all i had to do is ground it, remove it and add it again.

can anyone help?

Depends on what model you have. Some units can be bypassed by connecting to ground, some require to use switch to bypass.
If your installer told you to just ground the wire, simply tap that wire to any ground point.

Ebrake block, you mean on the radio. I bleive you just supply power to the line that is connected to the ebrake signal, if its not power then its ground.
