When i put a dvd in the unit it spits it rite back out what is the problem

Laser pickup unit fault. The unit alongwith its flat connecting cable should be replaced. Contact any service technician. Electro help

laser pickup may have gone bad..........replace the pickup or replace unit............good success, meder's tv service

Possible that the optical unit is not reading and might be defective.
If so you might have to replace, or use an external drive.
BBut make sure the DVD driver is intact, or reinstall to check once again if there is any hardware conflict.
If not the hardware is faulty. clean the lens eye and try .

If it is a burnt dvd, it might not play that format. If it isn't, I would take back the tv to where you got it from and get your miney back.

Normal dvd players won't play blu-rays...fwiw.

mode switch needs cleaned under tape unit on ckt board.. pain to get to. Put it together, pointing the same way when you took it apart looks like a round dot the size of a penny, with a shaft sticking up on the top twards the back

it could be your laser needs cleaning, strip the machine down and take apart your dvd drive casing. get a cotton earbud and spit on it a little, in a very careful clockwise motions (dont put too much pressure on) clean the laser eye with the cotton earbud (with the spit on it). you can also use alcohol but i dont like this as it can sometimes leave a little film over the laser.

put everything back together then try again if its ok you have fixed it, if its still the same let me know and ill find a guide on how to adjust your laser unit and put the power up slightly.

i took it a part and sprayed some air on it then i put it back together and it worked not sure why though

the problem of your unit is with in the system IC. located at the mother board. replaced mother board. intermittent trouble is cause by leaky capacitors take note of this.

It is called the slider assy. The slider moves the laser assy back to home or start position. It is a small belt underneath or there is gunk or hair in the gear mechanism. A very common problem with CD/DVD players/recorders. Very good though that you saw it was not comming back to home place. I wish I had a manual to assist you but I do not. Im telling you the most common problems with the slider mechanism. Good Lck
