now im not sure if any one has already done this or said this but you know the wire that sences that the trannsmission is in park, wire a switch to that so that way when you flip the switch on it senses the car is in park and then you can watch the DVD... i don't know how it works exactly but i have seen it done...

Taaadddaaaa!!!!!!!
Here are the steps to be driving, riding, and watching (Be safe, if you are diving, do not watch screen!!)

Step 1 Put in DVD.
Step 2 Play DVD (Do not leave it at the front menu, if you do not start the DVD you will not be able to start it after you begin to drive.)
Step 3 While playing - Hit the second from the bottom buttons on the right hand side of the DVD screen and then press the forward Seek Button. (You will see a little flicker)
NOTE: If you see a differnt screen with the words "cold reboot" on it, press the same button combination AGAIN and it should go back to the DVD...

Step 4 Now disable the parking break and make sure that the DVD stays on.
Step 5 Enjoy CTS brothers & sisters!

If you did everything correct you will notice that all the features are disabled. If you are at the main menu of the dvd you will not be able to select play movie or any features.

If you would like to stop the dvd, you must hit the top right button first. Then it will bring up the safety lock if you are in motion or parking break off.

OK guys, it seems like there's a fix for everything, including the DVD issue. Problem is, I've got the '08 (well, not really a problem..) and I need to learn how to override the DVD system as well. Anyone crack the new one yet?

thanks,

Scott T

Isn't there a better way yet to get the DVD top play, instead of going through the whole preocess explained on the previous page? It would be a pain in the but once I'm cruising down the freeway and decide to pop a dvd in, but have to pull over on the side of the road to do the button trick first.

The 08 CTS "Pop Up" screen has different controls. This direction will not work...

08 CTS - would like family to be able to watch DVD while driving. Looks and sounds great until you put it in drive. Anyone have any luck with the 2008 CTS? Thanks so much!

what about a hack for an 08 DTS? Anyone figure that one out?

I managed to get the unlock code for my 2002 dts off of EBAY. I now have an '06 DTS and am looking for the same guy on EBAY....Pull up CTS unlock code or simply just pull up CTS in EBAY motors, scroll through and you will find the answer to your problems !
