Just got a brand new KVT-911 DVD unit. Works awesome, but sparatically it will shut off momentarily. Almost as if the switch has been turned off and back on quickly. The audio and the screen will blank for about 3 seconds then come back just fine. Normally happens once or twice per trip somewhere. Very strange. Anyone else had this prob?

OK,

Got a brand new head unit and brain. I am still having the same problem. Once or twice every 30 minutes or so the screen will go black and the audio will pause, then it will come back on with the title info bars as if I just switched sources. No memory loss, just a pause...about 3-4 seconds. I am thinking I have a loose ground or switch wire, but I have checked it all pretty well. Any suggestions???
