I had that part figured, I'm just thinking i must have a bad connection in there somewhere. I had the switch wired in after I split off from the green/orange and that didn't work, so I tried the switch on the light green only, with the light green on the far side of the switch going directly to ground. With this set-up the HU wouldn't play video no matter what i tried, PB on, off, toggle on, off didn't matter, no video. I assumed at this point that the toggle i was using was garbage so I replaced it with a better one and STILL it wouldn't work! At that point I gave up and reconmected the light green to the green/orange and called it a day. Is there even a remote chance that my HU (which was mfg in May 2008 according to the sticker on it) has some sort of software in it that won't allow the bypass to function based on a ground interrupt only? AVIC411.com was talking about having to build a relay that uses the switched 12v power line to fool the HU. If I need to go that route then I say screw it I'll watch movies while I'm parked instead of while I'm driving. Thank you all so much for all the help, I appreciate it a lot!
