We have a 2005 Platnium ESV. The prior owner put in an large screen aftermarket tv. It's falling apart and the rear tv isn't hooked up to it. Question: I want to replace the aftermarket unit with a stock gm unit. Will a standard dvd player from a non-platnium work in my truck with the rear tv? Is there anything special about the platnium dvd player vs a non-platnium truck? Thanks for any help!
From what I understand.. The same factory DVD system they install in the Platinum series, is the same DVD they install in the non-Platinum Escalades. From my understanding though
Found out the hard way :banghead:that a standard tv/dvd player will NOT work in a platinum truck. On the rear of the DVD where the body harness attaches to the dvd player the Platinum model have 2 rows of 8 pins. The standard escalade models have 2 rows of 6 pins. Anyone have a source of locating just a dvd player with 8 pins?
Thats right the extra pins power the rear tv and supply picture. Anyone out there with a platiunum dvd player? How about a part #? Anyone>>>?? help!!!!
Bumping this thread - still looking for a factory dvd player for a 2005 platinum. Anyone know of a platinum in a wrecking yard???? Or replaced your unit with an aftermarket unit and want to reasonable sell me yours?
