sounds like its probably a "safety feature" that wont let the screen work while the car is moving

I bet you have to connect the head unit to the handbrake (how u do that I aint got a scooby :? ) or bypass it somehow

ive got a JVC DVD player in my car (seperate screen) to by pass the handbrake safety feature just run the green handbrake cable and attach to a bare piece of metal anywhere on the car. i ran mine through the bulkhead where the amp + wire runs and found a patch under the bonnet to attach to......
