Is Rear Seat Entertainment Video Viewable On My Yukon's Nav Displa

I know this has been discussed exhaustively, but I've yet to find this answered specifically.

 

I recently purchased a 2004 Yukon Denali with this factory non-touchscreen Navigation Bose radio.

It included the RSE (rear seat entertainment) with 1 ceiling mounted DVD Player/Display and 2 wireless headphones.

 

Is there a way to view the DVD video from the RSE on the NAV screen up front? I've searched this and many other forums and I believe it's possible on certain GM vehicles (such as the Cadillac Escalade), but all I ever see on my NAV display is a blue RSE screen with OFF, Mute ALL, Mute Front and Mute Rear selections on the right side. I've tried this in PARK, with the parking brake, engine on, just accessory to no avail.

 

I've read that some can do this and realize that I may have the wrong head unit, but wanted to call upon the the expertise of the forum to see if I can solve this.

 

Thanks much in advance!

if you can put a DVD in the dash player and it plays in park you can get it done i have it in the avalanche. but if you cannot then the only way to get it to do it is send the head unit to a company and have them change it over to play DVD which is around 500 bones. you are better off installing aftermarket unit

It won't work with that head unit. Lockpick makes an adapter that requires opening the cover to your HU to install a ribon cable and adapter, which then allows you to send your own video source. Then you'll have vide on the HU. But the quality doesn't look all that great.

 

Aftermarket is really the way to go. Only downside is that I haven't seen any that will allow you to easily integrate the RSE system. I would imagine it's possible though.

Thanks much Gentlemen!

 

I thought I was wasting my time trying to "hold buttons in for 10 seconds" to no avail. Rather than make any major changes, I'll tap into the AUX-IN on the RSE DVD player so I can play my MP3 player through the system without buying any additional third-party gear.

 

Again, many thanks for the quick responses. It seems that most of the posts that showed pictures of the radios have been removed so I couldn't be sure which head unit I had.

 

Again...Thanks!

 

Blessings,

Brian

      Gas fill door

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
