Hi I have purchased an Alpine screen with integrated bluetooth.

To enable this system to work I have to connect wires to the foot brake lead and the hand brake.

The instructions state connect this lead to the power supply side of the switch

In the Galaxy do they switch the live or earth?

The colour code for the power supply side of the switches is:

 

Foot brake - red/yellow.

 

Handbrake - brown/white (Mk2) or brown/green (Mk1). In both cases the ground wire is brown.

Thanks for the information I can see the wires to the handbrake and they look to be brown and have a 12V supply

 

I will be fitting an Alpine touch screen monitor into the central glove box on my Galaxy

Before final fitting into the car I decided to try it out

I have a motor cycle battery which I used for the 12V supply

The unit switches on and works great the problem happens when I try to use the set-up screen

It has a message stating this feature cannot be used whilst the car is in motion

There are two cables that normally would connect to the hand and foot brake

The instructions state connect this lead to the power supply side of the switch but the is the same as putting a 12V supply onto the connection

Does anybody know if this is correct?
