Does the operating manual say that you have to pull the parking break three times before you can watch a DVD? On some of the Dual HU they have a weird thing like that, so you might have to do a togle switch to simulate the ebrake (idea from Evil Dave).

I would check with DUAL to see what is the best to do in your situation.
My DVD player just needed to be grounded and that was that. I never had to use a toggle switch or ebrake switch.
