2005 GX470 Aftermarket Radio and Rear Seat Entertainment

Ok, silly me. I have a 2005 GX470 w/o Mark Levinson and no Nav. I installed a Pioneer 4100 using Beat Sonic adapter. Now, my DVD player wil power up but the screen will not. Can anyone provide a fix idea?

Did you connect the wire that is triggered by being in park?

Probably not because I'm not sure which wire you are talking about. Any help would be much appreciated! Am I right in that the rear seat Screen is somehow connected to the head unit?

There is a wire that will be labeled on the radio as "Park". It needs to connected to a constant power when the car is only in park.

Does the rear DVD screen has a remote, Check the remote batteries and replace if you can , confirm the operation via the remote. Becoz on Lexus if you are equipping with Non-Integrated display/DVD player, the remote is the only way to turn on the RSE ( rear seat entertainment ) display
