Eclipse AV 8022 purchased!

[MrSo0h0o]

hey guys, i just won an Eclipse AV 8022 in dash dvd unit on ebay for 450 shipped!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MakeTrack=true

i found a basic manual but can anyone provide me with some more info on this?

Dang nice buy!

Sure beats those cheap no name brands on ebay.

[MrSo0h0o]

daaaamn skippy cam.. which dvd unit did you have in your old cam? and did u have any probs with the vents being right behind the screen?

[cam2Xrunner]

I had a Pioneer AVX-P7000CD



I just moved the vents out and up, and didn't have a problem. You can also mount it on the bottom half of the opening.

[MrSo0h0o]

what gen is that cam? i have a gen 3 with the dials above the DIN.. but i dont think it will be too much of a hassle to close the screen to get to the vents. thats the 7 inch one, right?

also, do u know if there is a general way to bypass the gyrosensor thing or w/e its called that prevents you from watchin a dvd while the car is moving?

[cam2Xrunner]

I had a Gen 4 (99 XLE V6)

Yeah that was a 7" widescreen.

I think you just have to ground the wire to the parking brake. But be advised that it is illegal(and dangerous) to watch movies while driving.(I'm sure you know that already)

[MrSo0h0o]

yea i know its illegal.. but i wouldnt be watching myself while driving.. more for passenger, aka gf's enjoyment. i thought connecting it to the parking brake was what made it detect if the car was in motion(dont u have to put the parking brake on to watch?)

[RedPhoenix]

what makes the parking break differnt than a normal ground?

[cam2Xrunner]

I'm sorry I misworded that. You just need to ground the wire that is meant to go to the parking brake. (I'm gonna get in trouble for telling you that )

[MrSo0h0o]

hahaha well u can delete ^ and this post now that you told me LOL

[MrSo0h0o]

*Found that using Google

[MrSo0h0o]

yea i have that one already.. but reading from some of the posts i saw while searching, you had said that u knew ppl at eclipse, so thats why i was wondering if u had any access to other manuals. if not, its ok. i can probably go to an eclipse dealer and pick one up, right?

[MrSo0h0o]

ok so i got the unit in today and took a look at it. im not totally sure but i dont think i have the correct wiring harness or i have to do the wiring myself. here are some pics, please see if u can figure this out or help me.


the unit



the brain



wiring harness? weird shape ive never seen



the one on the right is the one above. the other one is a 12 pin harness(6x2) that went to a tiny amplifier(EA1412) read and supposedly that tiny thing is a 4ch amp that produces 50x4 RMS??



this is the amp


if anyone could help me out at all it would be GREATLY appreciated
