Default Clarion HU Dvd/Parking Brake Question

i just bought a clarion 7 in. touchscreen hu from my friend, but to watch dvds on it the parking brake has to be engaged. i'm sure theres a quick fix for this (eg tapping it to a wire giving the same or similair signal). anyone have any ideas about which wire could provide a steady signal so dvds can be played all the time?

check under the passenger side dash. they might have put a relay under there. i just cut out the relay that they installed and it works fine.
