I just got a truck with a audiovox over head flip down DVD disc MP3 player when I put a DVD in it starts saying disc loading and that is as far as it will go

your dvd player might been corrupted. did you accidentally loaded computer software programming disc? this may be the cause. you need qualified technician for you problem.

you need to clean the disc and make sure it fits in wright if that dose not work try another disc.

try replacing the spindle motor

I cleaned the lens, but I also tip the play upside down with the disc in it and it seems to work.

This of course may not be the exact same thing, but mine did the same thing. Sounding like it was loading, but in fact pressing the open button it I could see the disc not spining at all (normally you would.) With the power off of course. I took all the bottom screws out (where ever the arrow points to a screw) including to the display. There is one ribbon cable easily disconnected. I lifted the mount the DVD sits on and reseated it. I put a disc in it, turned on the power and the disc turned. Great I thought. I reconnect the cable, put the screws back in - and its working.

It may be that the disc you are trying to play is so dirty that it cannot be read. The other problem may be that the laser head is dirty especially with a portable device. Either way the machine cannot read the disc and gives up trying after some time. Careful cleaning shoudl resolve your issue.

If it does it with all discs then the player is dying. If it is just the one disc I would say it is a bad disc. You can also see if there is dirt or grease or fingerprints on the laser pickup lens.

Cheers

I have the same problem! The only way to fix this is to replace the motor that spins the DVD. if you take it apart and spin the DVD the movie will play. The motor is just wore out and has no torque to start the play process. I am still looking for a replacement motor for it and haven't found anyone that carries the motor required. Only Audiovox so far and they want 180 to send in and fix.

Try manually cleaning the pick-up.
Cleaning disc's and tapes DO NOT WORK

Look for dust, dirt or foreign object on the laser lens under where you put the disc in. Maybe blow some clean air on it.
