Default Handbrake wire - best to connect to...?

Assuming I didn't connect to handbrake ! lets get that outta the way

Have seen lots of different suggestions around the net (aerial, heatsink (?) etc)

Can I just make a short jump to the earth on the connector (ie couple of cm max) ?

Do they all need to be pulled down to 0v ?

Cheers for any help

OK, I am talking out my butt.

Got completely the wrong end of the stick

Not even the right stick!

Thanks Neil
Took the dash apart last night to test, if left floating you get handbrake message flashing on head unit, connect to 0v and video play back works fine
