Question Navigation sensor

Does anyone know of a way to bypass the emergency break and speed sensor on the stock navigation of most lexus so you can add a destination or watch dvd's on the navigation while the car is in motion? I know the emergency break is ground wire and i thought that was it, but when i try to drive with the emergency break up a little bit, the dvd player goes off after about 4MPH so this is telling me that its not just a ground. Does anyone know how to do this without having to buy an additional harness for $300+? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Default Nav Hack

You have two options:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=193739


which shows you how to Enable DVD,Phonebook,MP3 folder when moving
by taking the NAV unit out and performing some mods, or you can look at POST #25 in that thread for a NO WIRE CUTTING method that does pretty much the same thing..
