- Hi JEXX..thank u for answering so soon..what is an optical pickup..are they hard to install or expensive????? will it cause the DVD player to spin and then stop for 10 sec, then start spinning again? also cause the Disc error message? Please respond,thanks!
-   My DVD will not play but maybe once in 10 times. You can hear it spinning, but it just quits. It has had hardly any use at all. at first I thought I may be doing something wrong, like mayber it was on pause, but my grand son checked it out and that is not the problem;thanks

Actually, a clicking noise almost ALWAYS signifies a bad optical pickup. I've replaced them more times than Einstein could count. It's a cheaper DVD player so it might or might not be worth it to take it in for repair than to just get a new one.
start clening with a cleaning cd or blow dry air in to the port of the dvds (buy a can in radio shack) if the problem persist you may have a damages reading eyes or a bad ic...a few times but very few times de car that carry the reading eyes is block by something and a little push solve the problem...good luck...
Had a similar problem. Called for support, but was told needed new reader. I took off the cover and manually slid the reader mechanism back and forth a few times. After doing this, tried another dvd and it worked. Apparently it was stuck and not able to move to read the dvd. Give this a try.

I'm trying to operate my Emerson EWD2203 with a Philips Magnavox PM335B universal remote and the only code I can get to work is 324 and it only turns the power on and off. Is there another code I don't know about?

The VHS tapes keep getting stuck inside the machine. AND we received a british made DVD for a gift (zone 2). How can we get it to play on our DVD player? Is there an override code?

I can't play any VCD disks but just DVD disks. Is that ok? Isn't supposed to play any disk from CD up to DVD?
