Can I hook this diretly to a 12v power source so that I can have my visual all the time.

I have a clarion in-dash screen. THanks!

 

It may be a grounding source. Make sure in the manual it says 12v or ground.

 

Clarion screen requires a ground to turn on.

 

Thanks I will give it a try!

 

people miss under stand you clarify yourself better next your can run a direct line from the battery with an in line fuse to the tv screen. and then like everyone else said ground it and you have constant power the problem is that if you ever forget to turn the radio off then you are screwed just like if you leave the dome light on

 

From what it seems everyone "understands" me. The parking brake lead is the wire used to give you a visual on the sreen when the parking brake is up. My quetion is there anyway to wire it so that when i drive my visual on the screen will stay on.

Thanks for the reply anyway

 

The parking brake lead on the back of the Clarion In Dash Monitor requires a constant ground to stay on, I know I have one.

 

Everyone is right. I fixed thanks to you all. Thanks, Everyone!~!
