Jailbreaking DVD/Navigation

[colreb23]

I'm new to this forum and have looked for this topic, but have not found anything. Is there any way to override the 2012 Nav/DVD controls so you can view DVDs while you are in motion? I have seen the product called picklock that allows you to do this, but I also know that there is a way to manually unlock this safety feature by entering a sequence of buttons.

Before you blast me for trying to watch a DVD while I am driving, I assure you that this is for my daughter in the back seat. Happy Feet would not be my DVD of choice! Thanks in advance.

I'd recommend "NAV-TV", as they're a site sponsor and have EXCELLENT products!

Yup. Here's the info from lockpic: FORD LOCKPICKS I've been talking with them to opt in the front 2012 cam. Welcome to the site.

Find a buddy at Best Buy. My understanding is that there is one switch that needs to be changed on the back of the headunit that will allow DVDs to play in motion.

I installed LockPick and it's great. I found out about this other way after-the-fact.

You speak from experience?

Where did you hear about the alternate method, and where can the details be found?

I beg to differ. Nav-tv sucks as a product and its usability/features. Go with a Lockpick. I wish I had.

Be careful with any video in the vehicle within sight of the driver. New laws in Illinois took effect 01-01-12 after I just mounted my IPAD 2.
