What i did was get a switch from walmart. they cost less than 2 bucks...Get one that has 3 slots..1 for power, 1 for acc, 1 for ground. Plug the brake cord the acc, and splice the power and ground cords to the other two. When your switch is off you can watch video while you drive, when its on it will cut the video off and display that message.....

If you want to do it the right way, then plug it into the emergency brake line or the parking brake line...hope i helped

Question edited for a lot more clarity, full make model (what it is)'. Question moved from Televisions category. The warning message may have been useful! People don't realise that factory car audio is operated by and monitored by the Body Control Module (BCM) on a computer network. Your warning chimes and indicator clickers are generated by the BCM and played through the car audio system. The computer has no idea that this new device is! Take it to an auto electrician or to an Alarm / Audio installer and see if their professional bi-directional grade scan tool computer can reprogram the BCM to ignore your device. Or just put the old one back. ..

Running straight power from the battery suggests there's another option, as for instance running mains power... How could having two ground wires work, please?

That usually happens when the switch is dirty. You can flood it with electrical contact cleaner. Also make sure the speaker connections are good and the polarity is correct. https://www.google.com/search?q=power+acoustik+pd-651b+makes+popping+noises ..

Question edited for clarity. The way I read the product specs, it needs an amplifier? https://poweracoustik.com/product/pd-624b/ https://www.google.com/search?q=Power+Acoustik+PD-624B ..

Okay I am assuming that you are referring to a USB thumb drive aka memory stick which contains mp3, wma (YOUR STEREO ONLY PLAYS MP3 AND WMA VIA USB NOTHING ELSE MANUAL SAYS) audio tracks and a certain specific format (formatting is done on computer, windows and different types of formats are supported on different devices). NTFS, fat32, exfat. Typically I think they like fat32 before but I have had all of my drives formatted for NTFS on newer equipment and had no issue with it. Um since you checked the drive and its working it's probably not that. It could be the connector on your stereo there. But if its new it's probably a formatting/compaitbility issue with the stereo. Heres the manual http://www.poweracoustik.com/pa2012/manuals/PD-710-T.pdf Also this stereo is a really cheap brand so they don't work as well and dont have that great of support. A Google search of that an similar stereos from them came up with several issues. There is very little USB power coming from that port so it's probably only enough power to connect a thumb drive. Some people have cables connecting to other devices and that is probably not going to work. I would get a different usb stick reformat it on the computer and copy some mp3's over.

It may connect to another if receiver, if you have a second screen in the back of the vehicle you can control the unit from there.
